## Resource

The Rangers’ fifth overall pick in the draft opens the door to snag a top defenseman—Carson Carels, whose game draws comparisons to Hall of Famer Nicklas Lidstrom. With 20 goals and 53 assists last season, Carels brings elite two-way play and special teams upside, even if he starts on the second power play. Can the coaching staff unlock his potential? The Rangers’ offseason hinges on this pick. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
