*= camp invite
^= 2018 Draft Pick
So, there’s no huge surprises here, but it is worth noting that the Rangers didn’t invite any surprise PTOs. Bobby Butler, who played for Team USA at the Pyeongchang Olympics, was signed by the Wolf Pack back in June and is a training camp invite. Jeremy Brodeur, the son of New Jersey Devils icon Martin Brodeur, will also be at camp after participating at the Traverse City Tournament.
