The New York Rangers and newly acquired winger Barclay Goodrow are working toward a six-year deal with an average annual cap hit of around $3.6 million, according to Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli.

Goodrow will likely officially sign with New York once the league moratorium is lifted at 1 p.m. ET on Thursday, notes Seravalli. Evolving Hockey projected the pending unrestricted free agent to ink a four-year deal with an average annual value of $3.15 million.

The Rangers acquired Goodrow from the Tampa Bay Lightning on July 17 in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2022 NHL Draft.

The 28-year-old had 20 points in 55 games during the 2020-21 regular season, adding six points in the playoffs as the Lightning won their second straight Stanley Cup. Tampa scored roughly 64% of the goals with Goodrow on the ice at five-on-five this postseason, according to Natural Stat Trick.
