8 months agoThe New York Rangers have acquired veteran center Alex Wennberg from the Seattle Kraken. In return, the Kraken will receive a second-round pick in 2024 and a fourth-rounder in 2025. The club is retaining 50% of Wennberg's pro-rated $4.5 million cap hit. He is a free agent following this season. The 29-year-old is a solid two-way center who has recorded nine goals and 25 points in 60 games with the Kraken this season while averaging a career-high 18:49 of average ice time per game.
