The New York Rangers injury list is growing. Marc Staal, Jesper Fast and Chris Kreider should all be on the sidelines with injuries. Henrik Lundqvist will also be watching this game from the bench. That means there will only two Rangers older than 26 will be in the lineup, Kevin Shattenkirk (30) and Brendan Smith (29).
The Rangers have won only one game in their last 12. The team can take some degree of consolation that they took five of those games to overtime before losing.
