The Rangers have seemingly made a commitment to Libor Hajek in the sixth defenseman role.
Hajek has probably played a more solid game than Jones, but it was likely difficult for the 22-year-old to get into a groove being yanked in and out of the lineup so often. Gallant had said Hajek would not have to endure the same situation he was in last season, when the Czech defenseman barely saw the ice, so the coach was likely just trying to be fair to both players.
Harpur, 27, is a veteran depth player with 156 games of NHL experience. After two seasons in the Predators’ organization, Harpur signed a professional tryout contract with the Wolf Pack as a free agent before inking a one-year, two-way deal with the Rangers in late October.
