I see the remainder of the offseason playing out somewhat quietly for the New York Rangers, but with a couple of moves still left to come.

First, I believe the Rangers will manage to trade Nick Holden for a center. There will be other pieces involved, but I believe Holden has not yet been moved because Jeff Gorton is confident he can make him one of the primary pieces in a deal for a center.

Two names stick out for me: Tyler Bozak and Ryan Spooner. The prediction here is that Holden is coupled with a prospect or a pick to get one of those two centers, effectively placing everyone back into their rightful spots on the depth charts.

I also see the Rangers signing a winger to a tryout in training camp, then carrying that winger on the active roster. Think a Jiri Hudler-type.

Other than that, it will be quiet the rest of the way.
