The New York Rangers announced that star forward Artemi Panarin was absent from practice today with a lower-body injury that is considered day-to-day, per Vince Mercogliano. Panarin will not play in tonight’s preseason game as he nurses his injury.
Rangers’ Artemi Panarin is day-to-day with a lower-body injury
Panarin is the fourth Rangers forward to sustain a day-to-day injury this training camp. First, superstar Mika Zibanejad and prospect Brennan Othmann suffered injuries ahead of the preseason opener. But today, the Blueshirts again got hit with a double-whammy as Filip Chytil’s injury was announced just minutes prior to Panarin’s.
