Rangers dealing with injury mess as Artemi Panarin and Ryan Lindgren leave Islanders game
NY Post
The Rangers lost two players at once — and three overall — in their comeback 6-4 win over the Islanders in their second exhibition game Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.
Only one returned.
Artemi Panarin (lower-body injury) and Ryan Lindgren (upper-body injury) both left Tuesday’s contest and did not return.
According to head coach Peter Laviolette, the two skaters are still being evaluated.
The third Ranger to leave the game with an injury was Filip Chytil, but the Czech center returned shortly thereafter and ultimately finished the contest.
Chytil was lit up at center ice by Islanders defenseman Scott Mayfield less than halfway through the first period and was unable to get to his skates on his own power.
