Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Several teams have contacted the New York Rangers about goaltender Antti Raanta. If the Rangers were to trade Raanta, it would mean they would lose someone else in the expansion draft – likely one of Oscar Lindberg, Jesper Fast or Michael Grabner.
Source said the Rangers haven’t told defensemen Dan Girardi or Marc Staal to expect a buyout, nor have they asked if either would waive their no-movement clauses. Doesn’t mean that it’s not being considered.
