The New York Rangers just may be suiting up for another major trade this season, as several NHL scouts were spotted at a recent game before the Four-Nations Face-Off.
Recently the NHL has seen a quite the significant amount of trades over the last few weeks, one being the New York Rangers acquiring J.T. Miller in a blockbuster trade with the Vancouver Canucks.
However, just last week 16 different National Hockey League organizations were spotted scouting a single game between the Chicago Blackhawks and Nashville Predators at the United Center. One of those 16 teams being the New York Rangers.

Now there's clearly no way of knowing what the teams were interested in looking for, but a lot of trade speculation has been surrounding one Blackhawks forward Ryan Donato, who is having quite the season considering being a member of a not so good organization.
Donato has 19 goals and 18 assists for a total of 37 points in 53 games with the Blackhawks this season and is currently in the second year of a 2 year deal that carries an average annual value and cap hit of $2 million per season.
Making him a really affordable player for Chris Drury and the New York Rangers.
With that being said, there are several other players that these 16 teams may be looking at.
