## Resource

The Rangers’ draft lottery nightmare leaves them at pick five, forcing tough choices between top prospects like McKenna or Stenberg. Scouts split on who they’d take, but consensus leans toward North Dakota’s Keaton Verhoeff—a big, two-way defenseman with a powerful shot and offensive instincts, ranked third overall and compared to Ekblad. While trading up for a top forward might still be possible, the mock draft suggests the Rangers are likely drafting defense if they stay put.
