The draft is over and it is time for the New York Rangers to get a look at their young talent. The team will hold its annual Prospect Development Camp this week in Stamford, Connecticut. 37 potential future Rangers will take part.
The New York Rangers Prospect Development Camp is an opportunity for the team’s management and coaches to see the youngsters they have acquired through the draft or by trade. All 18 players drafted in the last two years will participate.
There is no doubt that Kaapo Kakko will be the star of the show, but this will also be the first opportunity for observers to see goalie Igor Shesterkin and defenseman Yegor Rykov in action. Last year’s top draft pick, Vitali Kravtsov was at the 2018 Prospect Camp.
The Rangers tweeted out the full list of prospects who will be attending.
