RD Victor Mancini - Hartford Wolfpack, AHL (2022, 159th, NYR)

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Big right shot defenseman at 6’4 220. Good skater for a rugged defensive defenseman. Doesn’t have much offense, but he’s there for his defense. Most Rangers fans believe he’s at least a top 3 defenseman prospect for us, and best currently signed to an ELC. Could see some games this season, and the hope is he takes over 3rd pair on the right side from Trouba after this season. He was a first time eligible in 2020 and now 22, so he’s a little old for a 2022 pick. Still, a potential NHL’er in the fifth round is a steal. His father is a longtime hockey figure. Coached NCAA, OHL, and internationally, and scouted in the NHL.

[RangersFan1994]

He is thriving in Rangers training camp so far. Just as he was playing for Hartford in the playoffs. He is moving up the depth chart. Could be a call up option or maybe surpasses Jones and make the team out of camp.

1 goal and 1 assist last night vs the Bruins. He stood out big time last night.

I don't see any way he surpasses Jones. Jones played well last season, and is probably a good amount better than him. And Mancini is a right shot with essentially no pro hockey experience.

I don't see the team going out of their way to play four right shots. Most likely, he'll get some games if any of the RHD are missing, and if all goes well he replaces Trouba on the third pair a year from now.

That’s a name I haven’t seen in a while. Liked him a lot when he was playing in Sweden.
