Former New York Rangers Captain Could Find Himself Back On The Blueshirts

The New York Rangers may be reuniting with former defenseman Ryan McDonagh, who played with the team from 2010-2018. Now 36-years-old, McDonagh is coming off of a season in which he appeared in all 82 regular season games for Tampa Bay.

In an average of 20:22 minutes, McDonagh recorded 4 goals and 27 assists to total 31 points last season.

The former Rangers captain would be able to help stabilize the Rangers’ line whilst bringing a strong and respected veteran presence to the locker room. Set to earn $6.75M this upcoming season does make trading for McDonagh a little more difficult due to New York’s limited cap space. 

New York would also be trading for what could possibly be a one-year rental as his contract is set to expire at the end of the 2025/26 season, but if the Rangers just want a short-term option then this is a trade Chris Drury should at least inquire about.
