Vitali Kravtsov refuses AHL assignment, looking for a new home (Report)

When the New York Rangers decided on the forward group they’ll dress to start the 2021-22 season, Vitali Kravtsov did not find his name on the list.

Instead, the Rangers assigned him to the AHL.

Kravtsov wasn’t happy about the news, and refused the assignment.

Now, the Rangers are reportedly allowing the 21-year-old to find a team willing to play him at the NHL level and will work out a trade if he can find a taker.

Kravtsov has refused assignment to Wolf Pack and is expected to be suspended, Post has learned.
