Brennan Othmann Sent to AHL, Rangers Coach Emphasizes Defensive Details

New York Rangers forward Brennan Othmann has been assigned to the Hartford Wolf Pack in the AHL after a brief NHL stint. Following his failure to make the opening-night roster, Othmann was recalled for a four-game road trip but played in only one game against the Calgary Flames before being scratched. Coach Mike Sullivan highlighted the need for Othmann to improve his attention to detail, reliability, and play away from the puck to secure a consistent NHL roster spot. While acknowledging "some good things" in his game, Sullivan stressed that "moments where attention to detail could have helped us keep the puck out of the net" were evident.
