According to Steve Zipay, Fedrik Sjostrom has accepted the Rangers qualifying offer for 1 year at $840,000. This might make the Rangers the deepest team in the NHL.
Sjostrom had two goals and two assists in 18 games last season playing mostly on the 4th line. He’s probably going to have to fight for a spot on the team considering the large number of 3rd and 4th line players that the Rangers have added since July 1.
I am not sure that adding a 2 goal, 2 assist man give the rangers a lot of depth. Sure, they have a lot of bodies, but you need quality to have depth.
We can roll 6 lines!
