The New York Rangers have benefitted from the trade with the Seattle Kraken. Defenseman Will Borgen posted his first goal today as a Ranger against Arvid Soderblom and the Blackhawks.
Will Borgen was a contributor to the team's utter thrashing of the Chicago Blackhawks, as the Rangers won the 600th game in the series in the original-six bout.
The Rangers came out on top with a score of 6-2, and Will Borgen was one of many players that scored by committee to come out on top.
Borgen's goal came with 1:38 left in the 1st period from the slot, as he swiftly beat Arvid Soderblom in net to put the Rangers ahead, 2-1.
Even better is the stat that followed, as the Rangers have had 24 different goal-scorers this season, and Borgen is one of them.
While this is only one win, the Rangers could utilize Borgen's offensive upside in the future should they decide to keep him.
Or use it as a selling point when the trade deadline comes around, in order to improve the team.
GM Chris Drury could utilize the defenseman to augment the draft capital for a stacked 2025 draft or to flip for a prospect.
The Canucks are one team rumored to be in on the defenseman.
Borgen is expected to draw interest from multiple contenders, writes Johnston. But the Canucks are motivated. Given their pressing need and aggressive approach, Vancouver could outbid other teams to secure the dependable blueliner.
This season Borgen has played 41 games split between the Seattle Kraken, and New York Rangers and has scored 3 points( 2 G, 1 A) with 13 PIMs.
