Vaakanainen Extended Two Years
With the Trade Deadline almost here, the New York Rangers announced they have extended defenseman Urho Vaakanainen for two more seasons with an average annual value of $1.55M. The signing, along with the acquisition of Carson Soucy from Vancouver yesterday, means the Rangers now have five of their six defensemen locked up for next season. A former first round pick of the Boston Bruins (2017 – 18th overall), the 26 year old had struggled to cement a starting spot before joining the Rangers in the trade that sent Jacob Trouba to Anaheim. This season is only the second time in which he’s played over 30 games (5 with Anaheim and 30 with the Rangers), after setting a career high of 68 last season. Used largely as a third pair defenseman in New York, the 6-2 208lb Finn has proven to be surprisingly reliable, and has even chipped in some offense
