Rangers’ Trade Targets to Add Muscle for the Postseason
January 5, 2024 by Tom Castro
If any doubt existed that the Metropolitan Division-leading New York Rangers need reinforcements in several areas, the Carolina Hurricanes put it to rest.
A 6-1 rout of the team they’re chasing in the Metro on Jan. 2 likely only reinforced what Blueshirts general manager Chris Drury and coach Peter Laviolette already knew: Their roster will require upgrades between now and the March 8 trade deadline if the club hopes to make a deep postseason run.
No shortcoming is more significant than one that vexes this team annually: Size and grind up front, a fact further exposed by the Hurricanes’ relentless play that shredded a group that came into the home matchup 25-9-1.
3 Rangers From 2013-14 Team That Would Help Current Team
January 4, 2024 by Lucas Standel
With it now being 2024, it’s been a decade since the New York Rangers last went to the Stanley Cup Final. They lost the series 4-1, with the last game ending in overtime. The Rangers have gotten to two Eastern Conference Finals since 2014 but have not been able to make it back to the Final. With this year’s Rangers team being one of the top teams in the league, it seems this season might be the one where they could make a run to the finals again.
While this team is very good, there are holes in the team that need to be filled. For this, we are going to look back at the 2014 team and choose three players that would help the Rangers make another run to the Stanley Cup Final this season.
