Rangers Recall Top Prospects Gabe Perreault and Brennan Othmann to Jump-Start Offense

New York seeks a scoring lift from Hartford’s standouts following a seventh shutout.

Overview

  • The team recalled Perreault and Othmann and reassigned Brett Berard and Jaroslav Chmelar to Hartford.
  • Perreault, 20, leads the Wolf Pack with 10 goals and 17 points in 20 games and recorded his first NHL point earlier this season.
  • Othmann has 10 points in 19 AHL games, three goals in his last four, and no NHL goals through 26 career appearances.
  • The roster shake-up comes after the Rangers’ seventh shutout loss this season, including a record six at home through their first 17 home games.
  • Earlier reporting noted Othmann faced trade speculation tied to limited NHL opportunity and usage.
