Rangers Acquire Minor League Netminder
The Rangers announced tonight, the acquisition of goaltender Jean-Francois Berube from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for future considerations. The move may seem a little odd given the current three-goalie roster at the NHL level, but Berube offers some goaltending depth for the Wolf Pack, who are in a position to make their first playoff appearance since 2015.
A former fourth round pick of the Los Angeles Kings, Berube has appeared in 34 NHL games for the Islanders and Blackhawks, with his last appearance back in 2017-18. He carries a career 9-10-4 record with a 3.39 goals against average and .898 save percentage.
