The New York Rangers have traded winger Kaapo Kakko to the Seattle Kraken. The move comes less than 36 hours after Kakko said he was upset about coach Peter Laviolette's decision to make him a healthy scratch in the struggling team's game Sunday at St. Louis. The Rangers received defenseman Will Borgen, a 2025 third-round pick and a 2026 sixth-round pick from Seattle in the deal. New York has lost 11 of its past 14 games, including five of seven since trading captain Jacob Trouba to Anaheim.
