The New York Rangers traded defenseman Keith Yandle to the Florida Panthers. The Rangers will receive a sixth-round pick and would also receive a conditional fourth-round pick in 2017 if he signs with the Panthers.
The Rangers are not expected to pursue St Louis defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk in a trade this off season. Speculation is Shattenkirk will be moved via a trade but the Rangers getting in on the bidding war is "extremely unlikely".
The Rangers chances in signing highly touted Harvard forward and pending UFA Jimmy Vesey are over as Nashville has traded his rights to Buffalo for a third round pick in this year's draft.
The Rangers will open up their home schedule for the 2016-17 season on 10/13 against the Islanders.
They will also play against Carolina in their home opener on 10/28. This is the first time since 1997-98 that the Rangers are opening up against the Islanders.
