The New York Ranger have just a made a massive announcement regarding forward Will Cullye, after several days of risking an offer-sheet the New York Rangers have officially secured Cuylle to a contract extension.
Cuylle Was drafted by the New York Rangers in 2020, second round 60th overall. His physical style of play and his frame standing at 6 foot 3 and 212 lbs makes him an attractive commodity.
The 23-year-old power forward played all 82 games for the Rangers this year scoring 20 goals with 25 assists for 45 points That was a + 12.
Many pundits have wondered what kind of a contract would be comparable for this young player and he has been compared to Toronto Maple Leafs restricted free agent power forward Matthew Knies.
the Toronto Maple Leafs announced that they had signed Knies to a six-year contract extension that had a cap hit worth $7.75 million per season after he had a salary of 960,000.
According to The Athletics' Peter Baugh, the Rangers have already been in talks with Cuylle about a potential contract extension. However, it's unclear how far these talks have gone thus far and what is exactly holding the two sides up from agreeing on a deal. - Remy Mastey
