Two steps forward, one step back—so it goes for the New York Rangers. Forward Brendan Lemieux suffered a fractured hand during the team’s 5-3 win over the Hurricanes Friday night.
Vince Z. Mercogliano of North Jersey tweeted about the injury following the win and head coach David Quinn confirmed the news in his usual postgame presser. The Rangers will now head on their four-game road trip without their top agitator, and the heart and soul of the lineup.
Brendan Lemieux fractured his hand. DQ didn’t have a ton of info but he’s going to miss some time.
