The stat line speaks for itself. Othmann is somehow out producing his record breaking year last season. If it wasn’t for older rules regulating the age of newly drafted players in the AHL, Othmann would absolutely be playing for the Wolf Pack. But due to being drafted out of the Canadian Major Junior Leagues and where his birthday falls, for Othmann to stay within the Rangers’ organization this year it was the NHL or bust. This kid is a dynamic scorer with a physical and chippy edge. It won’t be early this year but his career is bound for the NHL, let’s just hope the New York Rangers can make room for him.
