The New York Rangers are in need of significant roster changes heading into the offseason. After a tumultuous season, GM Chris Drury, who recently received a contract extension, is looking to restructure the team. Key players like Mika Zibanejad and Chris Kreider are rumored to be on the trading block, especially as the team failed to make a deep playoff run. The management has expressed interest in finding the right mix to ensure postseason success. The previous coaching change from Peter Laviolette to Mike Sullivan adds another layer of uncertainty to the team's direction.

Among the players potentially on the move, Zibanejad’s full no-movement clause raises questions about his future with the Rangers. Despite stating his desire to remain in New York, precedents exist where players with similar clauses have been traded. Vincent Trocheck has also been mentioned; however, insiders believe he is an integral part of the Rangers' future. As the cap space dwindles, securing contracts for upcoming free agents adds to the complexity of Drury's task this summer.
