Rangers prospect still undecided

Vince Mercogliano of Lohud: The New York Rangers 2017 sixth-round pick (No. 174), Morgan Barron is still deciding whether to go pro or not.

Morgan is the older brother of 2020 draft prospect Justin Barron.

He’s been talking with the Rangers and they’ve given him time to make a decision. Morgan said the Rangers have “put their offer out and talked to me a little bit about where they think I’m at,”

Morgan’s coach at Cornell: “At the same time, that’s a decision Morgan’s got to make. He knows the benefits and what’s available for him at the next level. He’s a smart kid and he’s got to make that decision on his own.”
