The calendar says summer still has a couple of weeks remaining. But New York Rangers fans know better: Tuesday is the last day before the unofficial start of autumn – the beginning of rookie camp.
The Rangers will welcome 22 young hopefuls to their training facility on Wednesday.
They range from players such as recent first-rounders Brennan Othmann (2021) and Gabe Perreault (2023), a pair of forwards who the Rangers would like to see make the team this season, to trade acquisitions such as defensemen Scott Morrow and Jackson Dorrington to later-round picks like center Noah Laba.
