Tony DeAngelo has played his last game with the Rangers, general manager Jeff Gorton told reporters Monday.

DeAngelo, the offensively gifted but hot-headed defenseman, cleared waivers on Monday — two days after a physical altercation with goaltender Alexandar Georgiev following an overtime loss to the Penguins.

The Rangers are trying to trade the 25-year-old, who was assigned to the taxi squad.

A first-round pick of the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2014, DeAngelo’s production — including an impressive 53 points in 68 games last season — has consistently taken a backseat to multiple suspensions throughout his hockey career and his controversial social media pages.

He signed a two-year, $9.6 million extension last offseason with the Rangers, his third team since being drafted, but was benched earlier this season after taking an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and complaining to referees about a separate call.

DeAngelo had one assist in six games and was a defensive liability.
