Erne spent last season with the Edmonton Oilers and only managed to tally one goal in 24 games, 68 hits, and an even plus/minus rating.
Hopefully by signing Erne to a PTO, the Rangers will now have another option to consider for their bottom six. If the Rangers are impressed with Erne at trading camp and decide to sign him, he could definitely be a valuable 13th forward or a call-up option for the organization next season.
