Major change: Rangers head coach Laviolette to announce big last minute roster changes
New York Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette is set to make some big last minute changes according to a report.
Taking a look at the New York Rangers projected lineup as they get prepared to face-off against the St. Louis Blues.
Tonight, at 6PM the New York Rangers will look to redeem themselves after taking a brutal 5-2 loss to the Blues back on November 25th.
However, several reports have surfaced suggesting that head coach Peter Laviolette is playing mind games and won't release any details on if there is any line changes.
If there is no changes, the Rangers lineups will look like the same as their last game on Saturday afternoon against the Kings, which was:
Panarin - Trocheck - Laf
Kreider - Zib - Smith
Cuylle - Chytil - Kakko
Edström - Carrick - Berard
No further updates on K'Andre Miller who was placed on Injured Reserve after sustaining an upper-body injury.
So the Defensive pairs will look like this:
Lindgren - Fox
Mackey - Schneider
Jones - Mancini
Along with that Rangers announced a roster transaction as veteran Chad Ruhwedel was recalled from the Hartford Wolf Pack, to sever as the seventh defenseman for the Rangers.
However, It was confirmed that backup goaltender Jonathan Quick will get the start in nets tonight as Igor Shesterkin started in the last few games.
Just keep in mind this is just a projection, as nothing has officially been confirmed by the New York Rangers themself. Once we get the official confirmation we will be sure to keep you updated.
