The New York Rangers released the Training Camp roster today. With two fewer preseason games, it’s not surprising then that it only includes 48 players. None of the European or Canadian Junior prospects were invited. Nor were any AHL players, as has been the custom in recent years.

Attending camp will be 28 forwards, 15 defensemen and 5 goaltenders. Names you’ll all recognize without having to go look for them on the internet. Barring injuries, at least 25 of these guys will be heading to Hartford over the next two weeks. Whom and when to be determined.

It’s that time of year again. The Rangers report for Training camp tomorrow for the 2026-27 season after two years in which they fell far short. Mike Sullivan is entering the second year of his five year contract, looking to return to the playoffs for the first time in five seasons. That feels like a long stretch to be honest.

To help him get there, General Manager Chris Drury has made some important changes to the roster. Jonathan Quick retired, Vincent Trocheck was traded, and Pavel Dorofeyev, Sean Durzi and Marcus Pettersson were brought in. Just because he needed more bodies, a couple of forwards coming off down years in Oliver Bjorkstrom and Eeli Tolvanen.
