New York Rangers Have Officially Placed Veteran Forward On Waivers
The New York Rangers shook things up this Tuesday, putting one of their experienced forwards, Tyler Pitlick, on waivers.
The news broke via Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, who reported,
«Pitlick (NYR) on waivers.»
After sitting out Monday's match against the Flames, Pitlick finds himself on the chopping block, heading down to the minors if he clears waivers. His recent performance has been lackluster, with just one point in his last 23 games, despite 24 shots, 49 hits, and eight blocks.
As Thursday's game against the Canadiens approaches, the Rangers face a decision: bring Pitlick back up or explore other options, potentially calling up a player from AHL Hartford.
