As the New York Rangers approach the 2025 NHL Draft, there will be a series exploring potential draft targets, starting with the 7th round pick (203rd overall). The series aims to provide insights into players not widely known to fans, relying on expert rankings and personal evaluations. The Rangers, who have not selected in the 7th round since 2021, may focus on drafting a goaltender, with Petteri Rimpinen being a notable candidate due to his strong performance in Finland's top league and at the World Juniors.
Petteri Rimpinen is a 19-year-old goaltender from Kiekoo-Espoo, who has shown impressive stats in Liiga and at the World Juniors.
With no unsigned goaltending prospects in their organization, the Rangers are likely to use their 7th round pick on a goaltender.
This series aims to highlight potential draft targets for the Rangers, differing from a mock draft by offering insights on lesser-known players.
The Rangers' last seventh-round pick success rate indicates late-round selections are mostly speculative, with only one of their last seven remaining in the organization.
