The Rangers stored their organizational depth chart intact on Friday, signing wing Tim Gettinger to a one-year, two-way contract extension on the league minimal wage, which can go to $125,000 at AHL Hartford, per an business supply. 

Gettinger, who was a restricted free agent, performed primarily for Hartford final season. In eight NHL video games, he had no factors. The 24-year-old was an alternate captain for the Wolf Pack, with 25 factors in 45 AHL video games.

It’s probably that he’ll start subsequent season within the AHL, however Gettinger may compete for one of many final roster spots in camp. The Rangers signed Ryan Carpenter as a depth middle and stored Julien Gauthier round. Each are anticipated to fill depth roles. Jonny Brodzinski and Will Cuylle may very well be within the combine for one of many final roster spots as nicely. 

Ryan Reaves, who carries a $1.75 million cap hit, may very well be a buyout candidate if the Rangers choose to redirect a few of that cash elsewhere. That will open up a roster spot on the fourth line for somebody to take throughout camp.
