August 9, 2024 by Lucas Standel
In my last piece, we went over the New York Rangers’ rebuild and what did and didn’t work and how it led to where the team is today. During the process of the rebuild, the Rangers traded away many of the key players that helped them make runs deep into the playoffs during the 2010s. These players needed to be traded in order to help the team become better in the future and so that they could have another window in which they could compete for the Stanley Cup.

Among them, Brennan Othmann and Brett Berard stand out as top-five prospects in the system, with the potential to contribute meaningfully to the team’s success this season.

The New York Rangers have not made any big changes this offseason but they will likely be making a change on defense with Zac Jones replacing Erik Gustafsson, who signed with the Detroit Red Wings on July 1. The 23-year-old blueliner has offensive upside and played well late in the 2023-24 regular season. He could become an X-factor for the Blueshirts this season.
