The New York Rangers made an under-the-radar move on Friday, re-signing defenseman Urho Vaakanainen to a two-year contract.
The Rangers emerged from the trade deadline in better shape than before, but there is more hard work to be done.
It was first reported by the New York Post. The pick originally belonged to the San Jose Sharks, which ensures it will land near the top of the round. The Rangers will also be retaining 50% of the $3.
The Rangers have locked in Urho Vaakanainen, who had been set to become an unrestricted free agent after the season.
