Summary
The Rangers’ scoring woes last season demand a fix—and they’ve got the cap space to make it happen. With only two players hitting 20 goals and a top scorer at 34, it’s time to upgrade. While top scorers like Tuch and Robertson come with steep price tags and loyalty issues, veterans Patrik Laine and Anthony Mantha offer high-risk, high-reward options. Laine, at 28 and injury-prone, still packs serious offensive firepower on a modest deal. Mantha, 31 and finally healthy, lit up Pittsburgh last year—but his injury history and uncertain future with Pittsburgh make him a gamble. The Rangers need scorers, now—and both options could be the answer, if they’re willing to take the chance. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
