Rangers Target McMann and Malenstyn

**Corey** (0:00)
On June 9th, the New York Rangers are looking to bounce back after a rough season, finishing dead last in the Eastern Conference. General Manager Chris Drury has some big moves to make, especially with free agency opening up on July 1st. He's also exploring the trade market to shake up the team's forward lineup. Two names popping up as potential targets are Bobby McMann of the Seattle Kraken and Beck Malenstyn from the Buffalo Sabres.
Both are pending unrestricted free agents, and if they hit the open market, the Rangers are expected to be interested in adding them to the roster. McMann is coming off a career year, scoring a personal best 29 goals. His game combined size, speed, and scoring, which could be exactly what the Rangers need to boost their top offensive lines. Malenstyn brings a different kind of energy. He's known for his physical play and speed, even setting a franchise record for hits in Buffalo.
While not a top six scorer, his relentless forechecking and toughness could be a great fit for New York style. With over $26 million dollars in projected cap space, the Rangers have the financial flexibility to make these kinds of moves. Both McMann and Malenstyn are seen as realistic options who could bring much needed speed, depth, and scoring to the team this offseason. That's the story for today.
