New York Rangers News
The Rangers have acquired Jackson Dorrington, J.T. Miller, and Erik Brannstrom from the Canucks for Filip Chytil, Victor Mancini, and a conditional first-round pick.
A sixth-round draft pick in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft, Dorrington is yet to make his professional debut. He is currently playing in his third season with Northeastern University of the NCAA. Dorrington has eight goals and 20 assists in 81 career NCAA games.
The Rangers have acquired J.T. Miller, Erik Brannstrom, and Jackson Dorrington from the Canucks for Filip Chytil, Victor Mancini, and a conditional first-round pick.
Perhaps the most anticipated trade of the 2024-25 NHL season, Miller has finally been relocated back to the Big Apple, waiving his no-trade clause to rejoin the Rangers. On a per game basis, Miller is one of the most productive Canucks of all time, joining Pavel Bure as the organization's only other player to finish their Canuck careers with more than a point per game. Some dressing room turmoil quite obviously led to Miller's early departure, and although he's fallen off from the 102-point player he was a season ago, he's still managed 35 points (9G/26A) in 40 games this season. He brings a much needed offensive boost to a team that desperately needs it in the underperforming Rangers.
