On Thursday, the Rangers’ American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate Hartford Wolf Pack announced that they have signed goaltender James Reimer to a professional tryout agreement (PTO).

Despite a strong 6-2-0 start to their season, the Rangers goaltending situation is currently in shambles. Joonas Korpisalo, New York’s backup coming into the year, was placed on injured reserve with a lower-body injury on October 1. Then, on October 10, starter and 2022 Vezina Trophy winner Igor Shesterkin was announced as out for the season with a lower-body injury. Without their top two goalies, the Rangers have turned to 24-year-old Dylan Garand to start their last two games.
