The New York Rangers qualified eight of their nine RFAs yesterday, meaning they will retain the rights to those eight players when free agency opens on July 1. The one RFA they did not qualify was defenseman Conor Allen, who will become a UFA. The eight RFAs qualified: Derek Stepan, J.T. Miller, Jesper Fast, Emerson Etem, Dylan McIlrath, Mat Bodie, Marek Hrivik, and Oscar Lindberg.

Danny Kristo and Jason Missiaen are Group 6 UFAs, having reached the age of 25, played three professional seasons, and had fewer than 80 (Kristo) or 28 (Missiaen) NHL games played.
