Rangers Trade Othmann for Battaglia, Fans Question Drafting
Description
The New York Rangers traded prospect Brennan Othmann and their 2021 first-round pick to the Calgary Flames for right wing prospect Jacob Battaglia. This move comes after the Rangers failed to trade center Vincent Trocheck and is seen as another example of their questionable drafting history. High picks like Kaapo Kakko and Alexis Lafreniere have underperformed, and other first-rounders have flamed out or been traded. The Rangers are now focusing on improving their draft choices and player development for the future, with hope in prospects like Gabe Perreault and E dot J dot Emery.
