Still seeking their first win on home ice this season, the New York Rangers have some serious lineup reinforcements for their game against the Nashville Predators on Monday at Madison Square Garden.
Vincent Trocheck returns for the Rangers after missing the past 14 games with an upper-body injury. And New York’s top prospect, Gabe Perreault, makes his season debut after the 20-year-old forward was recalled from Hartford of the American Hockey League on Sunday.
Each will start out in New York’s top six, which lengthens the Rangers lineup considerably. Trocheck, who has one assist in two games this season, will center longtime linemates Artemi Panarin and Alexis Lafreniere.
