## Resource

The Rangers are retooling, not rebuilding — and their defense is the big story. After shaky play last season, they’ve upgraded with new signings like Sean Durzi and Marcus Pettersson, giving Braden Schneider a fresh start on the third pairing. With prospects like Alberts Smits and depth players ready to step in, this blue line looks poised to be a major strength as they aim to compete now.
