The New York Rangers are rebuilding, and that means lineup changes are imminent. With lineup changes comes cap changes, making the Rangers’ cap space situation hard to predict.
Cap space can make or break a team. According to CapFriendly, the Rangers’ projected cap hit is around $78 million, with their projected cap space being around $1.4 million.
This is…less than ideal. The Rangers have a plethora of forwards in need of new contracts. Both Kevin Hayes and Mats Zuccarello are unrestricted free agents at the end of the year, with both Vinni Lettieri and Pavel Buchnevich being restricted free agents.
