Équipe: 2021-22 Rangers de New York

Date de création initiale: 13 juin 2021

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Overpays for UFAs to be contendy and gritty in the 2 year window NYR has before having to 'pay the kids.' The Coleman contract the most extreme example - he would probably get 4x4 on the market, so 6x2 is an attempt to get him for less term. Purpose of roster is to think about what 'hard to play against' might look like w/good players. This will be scary a year out when Fox, Zibanejad, and Tkachuk are up for raises, and how potential bonuses would map on to a limited amount of accrued cap space has not been mapped out. Shesterkin contract may be a bit light as well.

ETA - many thanks for the comments that illustrate the purpose of this AGM, that 'hard to play against' w/good players will be difficult for NYR to manage this summer, and even more so a year out. Will be interesting to see what compromises are made in terms of balancing longterm flexibility, quality of roster, and *grit.*
