The Rangers are making two lineup changes: Reilly Smith returns after a one-game absence to replace injured Brett Berard, while Jonny Brodzinski takes Jimmy Vesey's spot.
The swap between Vesey and Brodzinski is expected to be a regular rotation, as both players are standard 12/13F types, allowing for flexibility depending on performance.
Brett Berard's injury is unfortunate; he had been having a positive impact on a veteran group, injecting energy that the aging core desperately needed.
While Reilly Smith was initially sidelined, there’s a strong argument he should have been a consistent part of the lineup given his contributions this season.
