"A source said the injury was different from the one that Miller has been managing for most of the season. The Rangers did not identify what the injury was, but Miller was wrestled to the ice by Columbus defenseman Erik Gudbranson in the third period. While he was lying on the ice, he was hit in the back of the helmet by a shot from teammate Will Borgen, a few seconds before Borgen scored the Rangers' third goal of the game with 7:08 left."
"The Rangers called up two forwards from AHL Hartford, Jaroslav Chmelar and Juuso Parssinen, and assigned forward Brendan Brisson and defenseman Scott Morrow to Hartford. The moves leave them with 22 active players on the roster, one below the limit."
Rangers captain J.T. Miller was placed on injured reserve Tuesday following an upper-body injury sustained Monday against Columbus. The injury differs from one Miller managed throughout the season. During the third period, Miller was wrestled to the ice by defenseman Erik Gudbranson and subsequently struck in the back of the helmet by a shot from teammate Will Borgen seconds before Borgen scored. Despite the incident, Miller completed the game and participated in postgame media interviews. The Rangers responded by calling up forwards Jaroslav Chmelar and Juuso Parssinen from AHL Hartford while assigning forward Brendan Brisson and defenseman Scott Morrow to Hartford, leaving the team with 22 active roster players.
