In relatively unexpected news, both Artemi Panarin (lower body injury) and K’Andre Miller (upper body injury) are out for tonight’s game against the Devils.
Artemi Panarin was "really close today," but won't go tonight. Same for K'Andre Miller. Both are OUT tonight. #NYR

This puts the already shorthanded Rangers in even more of a bind, as they are running out of defensemen. Brendan Smith is back though, and he skated with Jacob Trouba at practice yesterday.
