We take a look at the Rangers' final impending unrestricted free agent, Niko Mikkola! Mikkola shook off a slow start with the Blueshirts to become a fixture on the blue line, briefly pairing with Adam Fox, playing physical hockey and stabilizing the third pairing! However, we examine why his return to New York looks to be a bit of a longshot. If he's not back, would the Rangers go with Zac Jones, Matthew Robertson, Ben Harpur or someone else?? Plus, pointing the draft spotlight at right winger Matthew Wood! Would the Rangers consider him if he falls to No. 23?? Episode 843. Intro song is "Leave the Lights On" by Passafire.
