The New York Rangers have just announced another round of cuts sending Dale Weise and Mats Zuccarello back to Hartford but adding Ryan McDonagh and Pavel Valentenko to the mix. This will just make the Wolf Pack / Whale that much stronger and make the decision for head coach Ken Gernander that much more difficult…especially on the backend.
Here’s the official release:
