Chris Tierney snapped a tie with a power-play goal late in the third period

NEW YORK -- After two deep playoff runs, the New York Rangers 2016 postseason fizzled out quickly.Eventual champion Pittsburgh dispatched them in five games in the first round, the last two by a combined score of 11-3.Now, obviously, there is going to be some changes, coach Alain Vigneault said a few days later. There are still some very good pieces. We have to decide in which direction were going to take.The direction he and general manager Jeff Gorton wound up deciding to take was mostly to give it another go with those good pieces. The changes over the offseason came mostly around the edges of the roster.The big move was a trade of centers, sending Derick Brassard to Ottawa for Mika Zibanejad, who is quite a bit younger -- and cheaper.Veterans Dan Girardi, Rick Nash and Marc Staal are back after disappointing seasons, and the greatest change in 2016-17 could simply come from any or all of them recapturing their previous form.Henrik Lundqvist will turn 35 during the season. The Rangers will give their returning core at least one more chance at a title in front of the 2012 Vezina Trophy winner before the window closes.The hunger for the game and to compete is, I think, the same, Lundqvist said during the World Cup of Hockey as he thought back to the start of his Rangers career.Along with Zibanejad, New Yorks most notable additions were also younger players. Some members of the Rangers youth movement to watch:JIMMY VESEY: The Hobey Baker winner as college hockeys top player, Vesey chose to pursue free agency after his senior season at Harvard instead of signing with Nashville, which drafted him 66th overall in 2012.Vesey picked the Rangers over seven other finalists in August.It seemed that they really needed to have me in their lineup, he said at the time.The 23-year-old forward had 24 goals and 22 assists in 33 games for Harvard last season.ZIBANEJAD: Zibanejad is also 23 and already has two 20-goal seasons in the NHL. He set career highs with 21 goals and 30 assists in 81 games for the Senators last season.Brassard, who just turned 29, had a career-high 27 goals last season.I think the potential is there for more upside, Gorton said of Zibanejad. He is just scratching the surface at age 23. There are not a lot of guys who have done what he has done as far as scored 20 before that age.PAVEL AND PIRRI: Pavel Buchnevich, a 21-year-old Russian left wing who was a 2013 third-round draft pick, is looking to prove hes ready to make an NHL roster. Brandon Pirri, a 25-year-old center, had a career-high 29 points last season but has already been traded twice in his career. The Rangers signed him to a $1.1 million, one-year deal from Anaheim.J.T. MILLER: The Rangers also kept one of their own, signing restricted free agent forward J.T. Miller to a $5.5 million, two-year deal. Another 23-year-old, Miller had 22 goals and 21 assists, both career highs, last season.I dont want to be satisfied on one pretty good year, he said.
