Rangers’ Blake Wheeler Disappointing In His Tenure So Far
December 5, 2023 by Lucas Standel
When the New York Rangers signed Blake Wheeler as a free agent on July 1, many saw it as a steal of a deal because they got a consistent 60-point player on a cheap deal to come in and fill a void they had on the right wing. While the deal looked good at the time, it has not lived up to the hype.
Wheeler has struggled all season long and even though he’s been moved around to different lines, it does not seem to be clicking for the 37-year-old. If his struggles continue, the Rangers may need to look at bringing in external options to help make up for his disappointing play.

Rangers Could Benefit From Patrik Laine Addition
December 3, 2023 by Jesse Courville-Lynch
There is no denying that the New York Rangers are the best team in the NHL this season. Their play out of the gate to start the 2023-24 campaign has been close to perfect, and they show no signs of slowing down. They have little to no holes in their game. Even after having to deal with injuries to a couple of their stars when Igor Shesterkin and Adam Fox went down at the same time, they remained atop the NHL standings. They will be going all-in come the trade deadline, and one name could help push them over the edge into a Stanley Cup favorite.
