Story summary

The New York Rangers signed veteran center Luke Glendening on a professional tryout agreement (PTO) to address their need for a fourth-line center after Joe Veleno was placed on long-term injured reserve due to a lower-body injury expected to sideline him for three to three-and-a-half months. The 37-year-old Glendening, who previously played for the Devils and Flyers last season, posted two goals and seven assists in 70 games between those teams. Under the NHL's Collective Bargaining Agreement, Glendening has a maximum of 10 days on this PTO before potentially receiving an official contract or being released by the team.
