New York Rangers official lineups against the Devils: Unexpected Veteran Healthy Scratched
Taking a look at the New York Rangers official lineup as they get prepared to face-off against their divisional rivals, the New Jersey Devils.
This afternoon, at 1:00PM the New York Rangers will be facing the New Jersey Devils at Prudential Center in Newark.
As the Rangers hit the ice for their warmups, several insiders have confirmed what the lineups will be, along with some very unexpected changes!
Mollie Walker of the New York Post has confirmed the following lineups:
Panarin-Trocheck-Lafrenière
Smith-Zibanejad-Berard
Cuylle-Chytil-Brodzinski
Edström-Carrick-Vesey
Lindgren-Fox
Jones-Schneider
Vaakanainen-Borgen
Quick
Shesterkin
It has also been confirmed by several sources that veteran Chris Kreider is a healthy scratch for todays game:
With Kreider being out, this has created some trade speculation considering the last time we seen a healthy scratch it was Kaapo Kakko and then a few days later he was traded to the Seattle Kraken.
However, Brodzinski will be slotting in to take Kreider's place, along with Jones replacing Ruhwedel.
No further updates have been provided as to when K'Andre Miller will return to the Rangers since sustaining an upper-body injury about two weeks ago.
And finally it was confirmed that Jonathan Quick will be starting in nets for the Rangers today.
