Overview
- Tye Kartye was claimed by the New York Rangers on Feb. 27 after Seattle placed the 24-year-old winger on waivers the previous day.
- The Rangers made room by assigning Brennan Othmann to AHL Hartford, following earlier reports that a different move might be required.
- Kartye has three goals and five assists in 40 games this season and is in the first year of a two-year contract carrying a $1.25 million cap hit.
- Seattle moved Kartye to waivers after designating him a non-roster player to activate Berkly Catton and Ben Meyers from injured reserve.
- St. Louis forward Mathieu Joseph cleared waivers and was assigned to the AHL’s Springfield Thunderbirds.
