Kravtsov leaves KHL, returns to Rangers organization
by Brandon Maron from on (#4WPKA)
The New York Rangers have one of their top prospects back in their pipeline.
General manager Jeff Gorton announced that 19-year-old forward Vitali Kravtsov has left the KHL and will play for the AHL's Hartford Wolf Pack on Tuesday.
"We're glad to have him back and have control of his ice time," Gorton said.
After failing to crack the Rangers' opening-day roster and playing five games in the AHL, Kravtsov had exercised his European assignment clause to suit up in the KHL.
The ninth overall pick of the 2018 draft appeared in 11 KHL games, recording two goals and one assist.
