## Resource

Rangers’ top prospect Alberts Smits is heating up for training camp, with coach Mike Sullivan declaring he’s physically ready to make the leap to the pros. Having battled elite competition in Germany and Finland—and even playing at the 2026 Olympics as the youngest player—he’s primed for a breakout. With a stacked defense, Smits could carve out a spot—maybe even on the third pairing with Braden Schneider—if he delivers under pressure. The coaching staff will watch closely; his camp performance could define his path forward. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
