Rangers forward Zuccarello out indefinitely

The New York Rangers announced Monday that forward Mats Zuccarello will be sidelined indefinitely because of an upper-body injury.

Zuccarello left Game 5 of the Rangers' Eastern Conference First Round series against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the first period after getting hit on the left side of his helmet with a shot from defenseman Ryan McDonagh. The Rangers won the game 2-1 in overtime to eliminate the Penguins and advance to the second round. They'll play either the Washington Capitals or New York Islanders in the next round.
