The Blueshirts have lost Chris Kreider for the foreseeable future and the immediate person to step in will be Greg McKegg who was a scratch yesterday. The Rangers were already operating with just 6 defensemen and there was some thought about bringing up a blue-liner, but now the focus will shift to a forward. So who are the Rangers likely to call up from Hartford? That depends on what they want to accomplish with the move.

The Wolf Pack Captain is a possibility, especially if the Rangers want a reserve forward who can step in and play 4th line minutes in a pinch.
