The New York Rangers face significant roster changes after losing Vincent Trocheck and Anders Lee. We analyze how Oliver Bjorkstrand fits into the top six and who wins the backup goalie job. Spencer Martin vs. Jonathan Quick is the key decision.

Key players discussed include Mika Zibanejad, J.T. Miller, Alexis Lafreniere, and Braden Schneider. The Rangers are currently 8th in the Metropolitan Division. Quentin Dolan has taken over day-to-day operations from his father James Dolan.

We discuss the impact of these moves on the upcoming season, predicting the Rangers will finish with 88-90 points. The backup goalie race between Spencer Martin and Jonathan Quick remains unresolved. Defensive matchups involving Adam Fox and Sean Durzi are also evaluated.
