Artemi Panarin and Alexei Kovalev have many things in common, notably being Russia-born star forwards who have played for the New York Rangers. This season will be Panarin's fourth with the Rangers; and Kovalev played nine seasons in two stints with New York. They've also become friends.
The New York Rangers prospect is hoping the entire experience of the past two seasons, with Hartford in the American Hockey League in 2020-21 and as captain of Windsor in the Ontario Hockey League last season, will be enough to carry him into the NHL this season. "I want to play on the Rangers," the 20-year-old forward said during New York's development camp in July. "That's my goal.
With the young blueline that the New York Rangers have, one important player to keep an eye on is Braden Schneider to make sure he avoids the second-year trap. The 20-year-old defender concluded his rookie season this past year when he was summoned from the American Hockey League (AHL) in Jan. 2022 to make the trip to face the San Jose Sharks.
