Three leading contenders emerge to acquire Kaapo Kakko from the New York Rangers
Kappo Kakko appears to be on his way out of New York, with three intriguing teams now emerging as frontrunners to acquire the talented young winger.
On the cusp of a Stanley Cup Finals appearance, the New York Rangers are considering significant changes due to the inconsistent performances of their homegrown talent. Young winger Kaapo Kakko is one player likely to be moved, as off-season reports hint that the team is prepared to part ways with him.
As the Rangers look to add immediate impact players, three teams have emerged as potential suitors for Kakko. His development hasn't aligned with the team's hopes, leading them to seek alternatives.
According to Jacob Punturi of Sports Illustrated, the Flames, Sharks, and Penguins are interested in trading for Kaapo Kakko. #NYR
It's uncertain whether San Jose, Pittsburgh, or Calgary have officially made an offer for Kakko or are simply showing interest. However, with the Rangers' Cup aspirations fading each year, they need a win-now move. If the right deal comes along, don't be surprised by a blockbuster trade before the 2024/25 regular season starts.
Stay tuned for more.
