Key players the NY Rangers should keep and trade this offseason

There are several trades that the NY Rangers could be looking at during the offseason. Some of those involved in the Rangers organization trade talks are unrestricted free agents Ryan Strome and Andrew Copp, among several other players.

Restricted free agent Alexandar Georgiev is another player the Rangers will be looking at. Here are the key players that should stay and go. First, I will start off with who should go.

NY Rangers: Who should go?

As some of you know, I was a big advocate for getting rid of Alexandar Georgiev because his stats were horrific. I made it clear early on I was not a fan of him in the latter part of the season. Honestly, I did see some improvement during his last 10 regular season games.

He went 8-1-0 during this period. He was the starting goalie in the game on March 22, 2022, but was replaced by Igor Shesterkin. Shesterkin ended up with the loss as the Rangers lost 7-4 that game against their division rivals, the New Jersey Devils.

Georgiev had a save percentage of .908 during that time. This obviously could be better, but most of them were W’s for Georgiev, thanks to goal support from the rest of his team. With that said,  I am still on the fence about Georgiev though. Give him another chance? That’s debatable.
