The New York Rangers (#NYR) are focusing on acquiring a center ahead of the NHL trade deadline, especially after Filip Chytil's shutdown. There is speculation about a potential reunion with the Anaheim Ducks. With over $5M in cap space, the Rangers are expected to be aggressive buyers. There are discussions about the team's recent play influencing their approach to the trade deadline. Additionally, there are reports of the Rangers 'taking calls' on Kaapo Kakko, but it's not confirmed that he is being shopped. The Boston Bruins are also contemplating moves before the trade deadline.
