The NHL Prospect Tournament is an opportunity for New York Rangers draft picks to strut their stuff and potentially win a job with the team or in some cases, earn a contract. While everyone is excited about seeing prospects like Kaapo Kakko and Vitali Kravtsov skate in a real game, there are some new faces to get familiar with.
There are few unfamiliar names you haven’t heard of before at the tournament. Some of them are non-roster players who have signed Entry Level Contracts and are expected to play in Hartford this season. There are also some players who were signed by the Hartford Wolf Pack and will play in the AHL or for the Maine Mariners in the ECHL.
