Another goaltender is on the move.
The Stanley Cup-champion Chicago Blackhawks have traded Antti Raanta to the New York Rangers in exchange for Ryan Haggerty.
Raanta, 26, appeared in 14 games for the Blackhawks last season, posting a record of 7-4-1 with a goals-against average of 1.89 and a save percentage of .936.
The Finnish netminder will back-up Rangers starter Henrik Lundqvist, with Mackenzie Skapski also on the team's depth charts.
Haggerty was an undrafted forward who earned 33 points and 34 penalty minutes in 76 games with the AHL Hartford Wolf Pack last season.
