Rangers Recall Brennan Othmann Amidst Trade Rumors

The New York Rangers have recalled forward Brennan Othmann from the AHL's Hartford Wolf Pack, assigning Anton Blidh in a corresponding move. This recall follows the Rangers' significant 10-2 loss to the Bruins. Othmann, 23, has played six NHL games this season without recording a point, despite multiple call-ups. His name has been a subject of trade rumors, with Sportsnet reporting in October that the Rangers are open to trading him. In 23 AHL games this season, Othmann has posted six goals, eight assists, and 14 points. It remains uncertain if he will join the lineup for Monday's game against the Seattle Kraken.
