Despite announcing they were open for business almost two weeks ago, the New York Rangers haven't really made much noise on the trade market. But that might soon change, as more and more teams are taking a long, hard look at adding speedy forward Michael Grabner.
Due to his cheap cap hit and seemingly low asking price, action has begun to pick up surrounding Grabner and a move out of the Big Apple, according to TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
Grabner would make a solid offensive-type add to any club looking to get deeper up front, as the veteran winger has put up back-to-back 25-plus goal seasons.
He will become an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
