We only have to wait one more day and then we will have a few more Rangers prospects to watch. Tomorrow - October 6, 2020 - the first round of the 2020 NHL Entry Draft will be held and the Rangers have 2 picks, the first overall pick and the 22nd pick. On Tuesday, October 7th rounds 2 through 7 will be completed. The Rangers' second round pick was traded to the Carolina Hurricanes as part of the trade to acquire Adam Fox - a good deal IMO. The Rangers have 10 picks in this year's draft, barring any additional deals. Alexis Lafreniere is the consensus top prospect available in this year's draft and is expected to be selected by the Rangers at number one. This is only the second time in history the Rangers have had the first overall pick since the Entry Draft was instituted in 1963. The Rangers had the first overall pick in 1965 (55 years ago) and selected Andre Veilleux, who never played a game in the NHL. It was a thin year for talent in that draft and only 11 picks were made by the Original 6 teams, with defenseman Pierre Bouchard being the only notable player selected, by the Montreal Canadiens. To say I'm excited about this draft would be an understatement. Just a heads up, the first round is Tuesday the 6th and 2 thru 7 is Wednesday the 7th |

I posted the above information after midnight on the east coast so it was already Monday October 5th, but was mistaken when I said Round 2 will be Tuesday. Round 2 is in fact on October 7th but it is Wednesday. |

Appreciate the videos 74. Not a knock on Vitali, but does anyone else get the impression from KHL highlights that the defense leaves little to be desired?

You don't see many Russian defenseman make the NHL any longer I just loved Darius Kasparaitis, when he was a Ranger and of course Sergei Zubov |
