Carey Terrance thrilled to be reuniting with former junior hockey teammate on Rangers
In more ways than one, prospect Carey Terrance seems to be on the winning side since arriving in New York. Access the Rangers beat like never before Join Post Sports+ for exciting subscriber-only features, including real-time texting with Mollie Walker about the inside buzz on the Rangers. tRY IT NOW Though it's one thing to be ripped away from your developmental path, the 20-year-old now has the opportunity to play closer to home for the Rangers as he was a part of the return from the Ducks in the June trade for Chris Kreider. Advertisement The Akwesasne native, who was drafted by Anaheim in the second round (59th overall) in 2023, doesn't have family traveling as far to visit, and his two sisters go to school nearby, including one at Albany. 'It's surprising there's not too many Rangers fans up back home,' Terrance said after the second day of the developmental camp for prospects at the MSG Training Center on Wednesday. 'It's mostly Montreal and Boston, but the ones that are Rangers fans were texting me right away and were really excited.' 3 Carey Terrance was drafted by Anaheim in the second round of the 2023 NHL Draft. Robert Sabo for NY Post Advertisement The center also will be reunited with one of his best friends and teammate Malcolm Spence, with whom he played the past three years with the Erie Otters. Before the Rangers drafted Spence 43rd overall last week, Terrance was shaking in anticipation. 'I was actually sitting in my bed on the second day of the draft,' he said. 'I put on the second round, and I see the Islanders have the pick before the Rangers and I'm like, 'Ugh, they might draft him with [Matthew] Schaefer. Please don't.' And it didn't happen. 3 Malcolm Spence stands onstage after being selected 43rd overall by the Rangers during the second round of the 2025 NHL Draft at Peacock Theater on June 28, 2025 in Los Angeles.

I sent a video to our group chat right away in Erie. I was really excited.' Though early in his career, Terrance didn't take any great offense in the trade across the country. He is turning pro this year and in taking that next step, he is just trying to get as ingrained with the Rangers as possible, starting with the development camp. 3 Rangers rookie Carey Terrance when the team held its training for rookies on July 1, 2025 at Madison Square Garden Training Center in Greenburgh, NY. Robert Sabo for NY Post Advertisement 'Hockey's a business,' he said. 'Everything happens for a reason, that's kind of the way I took it. Anaheim drafted me and did really well with my development. I can't thank them enough.' This past season in Erie, Terrance had 20 goals and 19 assists for 39 points across 45 games. He also won a gold medal at the 2025 IIHF World Junior Championship. Ahead of training camp, Terrance is focusing on putting on more weight and honing in on what he prides himself to be, a 'versatile' and 'vocal' player.

Wisconsin hockey defenseman selected in first round of 2025 NHL draft
#6 IS HEADED TO THE 613 🤩Logan Hensler goes No. 23 to the @Senators!#NHLDraft | #Sens The Ottawa Senators selected Wisconsin men's hockey freshman defenseman Logan Hensler with the No. 23 pick of the 2025 NHL Draft on Friday at L.A. Live's Peacock Arena. With the selection, Hensler becomes the 19th ever UW men's hockey representative to hear his name called in the first round of the NHL draft. "I'm ecstatic," Hensler said after being drafted. "Great organization, and I'm pumped to get started with them. Long journey ahead, but I'm super excited it's with them. It's always been a dream of mine, and to be drafted by Ottawa is amazing. I'm grateful for the opportunity and excited to get started." At 6-foot-2, Hensler registered two goals and 10 assists for 12 total points in 32 appearances as a true freshman. As the fifth-youngest player in college hockey, Hensler's efforts in his sole season under Mike Hastings earned him a spot on the 2024-25 All-Big Ten Freshman Team. Prior to donning the scarlet and white, Henseler suited up for the U.S. National U18 Team in 2023-24 and accumulated four goals and 32 points in 61 games. The Woodbury, Minnesota, native also earned a gold medal while skating for the United States at the 2025 IIHF World Junior Championship in Ottawa - the city where he will play home games in the NHL. Hensler's first round selection also stretches Wisconsin's streak of at least one player hearing his name called in the NHL draft to 28 years. He, Luke Kunin (2016), Trent Frederic (2016), K'Andre Miller (2018), Alex Turcotte (2019), Cole Caufield (2019), Dylan Holloway (2020), Corson Ceulemans (2021) and Charlie Stramel (2023) are the most recent Badger draftees to go in the first round dating back to 2015. The standout will join a Senators squad that went 45-30-7 during the 2024-25 season, a campaign that ended with a 4-2 first-round series loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs. The playoff appearance marked the first postseason series for the franchise since the 2016-17 season and the first winning output in nearly a decade.
