"Sam Carrick was an excellent Ranger. He was a solid depth signing who solidified the fourth line and was one of the only bright spot for the Blueshirts in the last two years. He was consistent and played an overall solid defensive game."
"Carrick, 34 years old with another year left on his contract at $1 million, returned a 3rd round pick and a 6th round pick from the Sabres, both in 2026. The 6th round pick was originally Chicago's, so it's earlier in that round."
The New York Rangers traded 34-year-old center Sam Carrick to the Buffalo Sabres at the trade deadline. Carrick, who had one year remaining on his $1 million contract, was exchanged for a 2026 3rd round pick and a 2026 6th round pick (originally Chicago's). Carrick had been a valuable depth player for the Rangers, providing solid fourth-line production and defensive consistency over the past two years. While the return matched expectations, some felt it could have been higher given recent comparable trades involving players like Michael McCarron and Nic Roy.
