Vitali Kravtsov returns to Rangers

It looks like Vitali Kravtsov is headed back to the Rangers after two months in Russia.

This comes days after Kravtsov was sent to the VHL, sparking some interesting discussion. The soon-to-be 20-year-old winger will likely spend time in Hartford to get his mind and confidence right.

Assuming Kravtsov takes the next step in his very young career, I’d expect to see him in the NHL before the season is out. Jeff Gorton did the right thing by seizing this opportunity to bring him back.
