Duclair Survives the First Round of Cuts

As all of the other junior players were sent down today, Anthony Duclair stayed with the big club.  Though things are still squarely rigged against him making the team, it is encouraging that he is apparently separating himself from the other junior prospects.

In a bit of a surprise, Chris McCarthy was among the first cuts, while the other college aged prospects were all kept.   Not very good news for Chris.   The other big gets from the offseason, Hayes, Haggerty and Bodie all made it through this round.

But the big news so far is Duclair.   And this is only the beginning of the big news for this kid as a Ranger.
