The Future is Now

Leslie Treff at Hockey's Future takes a look at how Ranger prospects are performing at training camp...

"With the top three forward lines pretty much set, absent a trade, forward prospects will try to fill at most two wing positions on the fourth line. Byers, Hugh Jessiman, and Lauri Korpikoski are considered to be the top prospects fighting for a wing roster position. Should the team not decide to go with veteran Blair Betts (who looks great in camp) in the fourth line center position, prospects Anisimov and Moore are top prospect candidates to make the Rangers' roster in that position. On the blueline, a seventh defenseman is likely the only available roster spot. Both prospect Corey Potter and AHL veteran Tomas Pock are in the mix for it."

...love to see so many youngsters fighting a position on the big club.
