## Resource

The Rangers’ defense got a major upgrade this offseason, adding Marcus Pettersson and Sean Durzi to bolster depth behind Fox and Gavrikov. Pettersson brings steady, penalty-killing defense with offensive upside, while Durzi adds offensive spark and veteran experience. Together, they’re poised to form a reliable second pairing, giving coach more flexibility as young prospect Alberts Smits develops. With these moves, the blue line looks far more consistent and battle-tested for the upcoming season. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
