In a significant move, the New York Rangers have officially sent their 12th overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft to the Pittsburgh Penguins. This trade finalizes the earlier deal involving J.T. Miller, signaling a strategic shift for the Rangers as they opt to focus on potential opportunities in the 2026 draft instead. With the Penguins now possessing both the 11th and 12th picks, the Rangers must navigate the implications of going another year without a first-round selection. Fans are divided on the decision, with many questioning the long-term effects of this trade as the Rangers consider their options in the upcoming draft. The team is reportedly exploring prospects for trading up, while the decision on the 12th pick has sparked considerable debate among supporters.
