Kris Knoblauch will address the media today at 5:30 and we should learn more about Igor Shesterkin’s availability. The Rangers did skate in Washington earlier today but no news came out of that skate. Yesterday, Knoblauch said he could possibly play this weekend, so we will have to wait and see.
If Igor Shesterkin is a go, it would be irregular since he hasn’t taken part in a full practice. He remains on IR per CapFriendly.
Tom Wilson back tonight
Things won’t get easier for the Rangers with Tom Wilson back in the lineup for the Capitals.
