The New York Rangers will soon have some decisions to make once the laundry list of injuries stops piling up like it has.
Once everyone gets healthy, the team will only be able to carry one of Josh Jooris, Oscar Lindberg, or inevitably Matt Puempel when Pavel Buchnevich and Mika Zibanejad, among others, return. It remains possible the Rangers suffer another injury, but for now the trio are fighting for one roster spot. In a survivor-like situation, Buchenvich’s return will remove one from the roster, then Zibanejad’s return a few weeks later will remove the other, leaving only one remaining.
