Story summary

The New York Rangers have made a risky decision regarding their backup goalie by putting Dylan Garand on waivers. If another team claims Garand, the Rangers will lose him for nothing, but they believe he needs more development time rather than immediate NHL action. Should Garand clear waivers, he would become the top goaltender for AHL Hartford. The move also affects forward Taylor Raddysh, who was left out of the official game group that traveled to UBS Arena in a preseason finale, indicating his uncertain status with the team. This decision highlights the competition among young players vying for spots on an NHL roster and the strategic choices teams make regarding player development versus immediate contribution.

The competition for the Rangers’ backup goalie spot has been decided — and it comes with a risk. asserted

it → decide → risk

The Blueshirts intend to put goaltender Dylan Garand and forward Taylor Raddysh on waivers Sunday, according to The Post’s Mollie Walker, and the first move signifies that Joonas Korpisalo will serve as the No. 2 behind Igor Shesterkin this season. uncertain

Korpisalo → intend → Shesterkin

’s a chance that another team could claim Garand and the Rangers lose him for nothing, but it’s a risk they’re accepting with the thought that the 24-year-old has more developing to do — and that No. 1 goalie reps could help with that. uncertain

reps → ’ → that

If Garand clears waivers, he’d be in line as the top goaltender for AHL Hartford. asserted

he → clear → Hartford

Raddysh skated in 68 games for the Rangers last season and collected 19 points, but he served as an extra forward rotating in throughout training camp while competing with Matt Rempe and Jaroslav Chmelar for the final forward spots. asserted

he → skate → spots

And in an ominous sign, Raddysh was one of the players — along with Garand and defenseman Scott Morrow — left out of the official game group that traveled to UBS Arena for what essentially served as a dress rehearsal in the preseason finale. asserted

what → leave → finale
