Despite trading for Soucy before the 2025 NHL Trade Deadline with the hopes that he can be a staple on the team’s blueline for the future, he didn’t exactly live up to expectations in his 16 games with the Rangers. Soucy was even scratched out of the lineup on a couple of occasions as he had trouble finding his role. After a disappointing end to the season, there was some speculation that the Rangers could move on from Soucy. According to The Athletic’s James Mirtle [https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6409782/2025/06/09/free-agency-nhl-offseason-rumors-mitch-marner-mirtle/?source=emp_shared_article], Soucy is potentially available via trade. However, due to Soucy’s low trade value as of right now, the Rangers are reportedly hesitant to trade him with the chances of the veteran defenseman staying put becoming more likely. “Carson Soucy ... I don't think the Rangers would be opposed to trading him but I also don't think they would be willing to sell low on a guy that they just gave up a high third-round pick for,” Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today said.
