Notes and Thoughts on the Rangers Rookies Through November

Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar was recently named the NHL’s rookie of the month for November. Makar had 16 points in 14 games for the Avs — seven goals and nine assists. As of Nov. 30, Makar has 26 points in the first 26 games of the 2019-20 season, making him an early favorite to win the 2020 Calder Memorial Trophy as the NHL’s rookie of the year.

Of course, the Rangers have no shortage of rookie skaters in their lineup this season. It’s hard to remember the last time that the Blueshirts had this many first-year players filled with so much potential on the ice.
