Brett Howden, one of the pieces acquired at last year’s trade deadline at the last possible second in the blockbuster that sent former Rangers captain, Ryan McDonagh, and JT Miller to Tampa Bay, is unfortunately hurt. In Tuesday’s 1-0 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers, Howden suffered a knee sprain and initially was able to come back onto the ice for a short shift before departing prior to the end of the first period. Coach David Quinn said after the loss that Howden will be reevaluated in the following days, which revealed that the forward is set to miss at least a three to four weeks with an MCL sprain.
