Summary

The Rangers pulled off a savvy move by signing Oliver Bjorkstrand for $4.5M on a one-year deal to inject scoring into their top six, but the real story lies in what they passed on. After exploring Anthony Mantha and Eeli Tolvanen, they settled on Bjorkstrand — a solid but not elite scorer — while Mantha landed a better deal with the Devils and Tolvanen remains unsigned at a more affordable price. With Mantha’s injury history and Tolvanen’s similar production, the Rangers’ decision now looks like a gamble that could pay off — or backfire — depending on health and results.
