In a move that highlights the New York Rangers' strategic depth, President and General Manager Chris Drury has announced that forward Brett Berard is heading back to the AHL's Hartford Wolf Pack.
Berard, a promising 23-year-old talent, has been a steady contributor for the Wolf Pack this season, notching 18 points through 34 games. His time with the Rangers has also been noteworthy, as he’s suited up for 13 NHL games this year.
Hailing from Providence, RI, Berard has built an impressive AHL resume over four seasons, amassing 89 points in 138 games. His NHL experience with the Rangers includes 48 games, where he has tallied ten points. This move could be a tactical step to further hone his skills and maximize his potential.
Drafted in the fifth round of the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, Berard has shown the kind of grit and determination that teams value in a developing player. This assignment to Hartford is another chapter in his journey, offering him the chance to refine his game and make an even bigger impact in the future.
As the Wolf Pack continue their 2025-26 campaign, fans can look forward to seeing Berard in action. Single game tickets are available now, so don’t miss the opportunity to catch the rising star in Hartford.
