"Drury held a private conversation with Panarin, explaining that the pending free agent will not receive an extension offer from the team. It's hard to say how I feel, Panarin said on Saturday night following a rare 6-3 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. I'm still confused, but the GM decided to go in a different direction. I'm OK with that."
"The 34-year-old left-winger has 54 points (18 goals, 36 assists) in 48 games this season and has averaged more than a point per game during his Rangers career, which began in 2019-20. He is just two years removed from posting a career-best 120 points, and he has averaged 103 points per 82 games since arriving in New York. Panarin has a full no-trade clause, which will allow him to dictate where he will go before the NHL's March 6 trade deadline."
Artemi Panarin will not receive a contract extension from the New York Rangers after general manager Chris Drury decided to re-tool the roster following a poor first half of the 2025-26 season. Panarin expressed confusion but said he is OK with the decision after a 6-3 win over the Philadelphia Flyers. The Rangers are expected to be sellers at the trade deadline as they sit at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. Panarin is in the final year of his seven-year, $81.5 million deal, has 54 points in 48 games this season, and holds a full no-trade clause.
