When he was extended and the Rangers signed both Taylor Raddysh and Conor Sheary, the usual panic around playing the kids took center stage. In October, I wrote that none of these spare Rangers forwards would take significant playing time from the kids long term. With one on waivers, the Rangers have decisions ahead of them regarding all three, and these decisions may come in short order.
Sheary has made a splash for the New York Rangers in his lone preseason game so far. The 33-year-old scored a goal in the Sept. 21 win against the New Jersey Devils, tallying seven shot attempts in total. He also created six scoring chances for himself, including two high-danger opportunities per Natural Stat Trick. Sheary is attempting to make his way back to the NHL after his contract was bought out by the Tampa Bay Lightning this summer.
