HARTFORD, November 25, 2014: Hartford Wolf Pack general manager Jim Schoenfeld announced today that the parent New York Rangers have signed defenseman Henrik Tallinder to a Professional Tryout (PTO) agreement.
Tallinder, 35, has skated in 678 NHL games with the Buffalo Sabres and New Jersey Devils in a thirteen-year North American pro career.

Tallinder has totaled 28 goals and 114 assists for 142 points, plus 378 penalty minutes, in his 678-game NHL career, and has also skated in two Winter Olympics (2010 and 2014) for Team Sweden, winning a Silver Medal in 2014.
