Jacob Trouba is the latest Rangers defenseman to suffer an injury. This one will keep him out for 4-6 weeks with a broken thumb. The vaunted right side of the Rangers blue line is down to just Adam Fox now. The Rangers, already down to their 8th and 9th defensemen, are basically dressing AHL defensemen at this point. It is possible that we see Anthony Bitetto, Libor Hajek, and Jack Johnson in the lineup. Yet another injury on the defense for the Rangers, and they are running low on replacement options.
What’s next for the Rangers blue line?
