Rangers Re-Sign Promising Young Defenseman
The New York Rangers have made a notable move, as they have re-signed defenseman Scott Morrow to a one-year contract.
The New York Rangers have secured the services of promising defenseman Scott Morrow for the upcoming 2026-27 season. Morrow, who will command an $850,000 cap hit, will also earn $125,000 in the American Hockey League. It was crucial for the Rangers to retain the 23-year-old blueliner, given his status as one of their top young defensemen.
Morrow played in 29 games with the Rangers last season, contributing six assists. During the 2025 NHL offseason, the Rangers acquired Morrow in a trade that sent star defenseman K Andre Miller to the Carolina Hurricanes. With his new contract, Morrow is expected to make a strong impact and potentially become a key member of the Rangers' defense unit in the years to come.
