Rangers Given Worrying Update On $66.5 Million Star

It was a rough season for the New York Rangers, who didn't come anywhere close to achieving a berth in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and were also the worst club in the NHL on home ice, suffering several embarrassing shutout losses.

General manager Chris Drury penned a letter to fans amidst a particularly brutal stretch in which he indicated that there would be several painful decisions ahead, and that soon included the trade of Artemi Panarin to the Los Angeles Kings; he also later traded Vincent Trocheck, albeit after the season ended, to the Utah Mammoth.
