In the midst of their longest losing streak of the season, the New York Rangers recalled prospects Brett Berard and Dylan Garand from Hartford of the American Hockey League on Sunday.
To make room on the active roster, the Rangers assigned rookie defenseman Scott Morrow to Hartford and placed defenseman Will Borgen on injured reserve. That leaves the Rangers with 14 forwards, six defensemen, and three goalies on the current 23-man roster.
The additions of Berard and Garand are likely precautionary since J.T. Miller is day to day with an upper-body injury and Jonathan Quick was banged up late in their 3-2 loss to the Utah Mammoth on Saturday.
