Quick notes: Nash gets an ‘A’; Gerbe contract to be voided; Klein injured

Three little tidbits from the Rangers came out today:

• Kevin Klein missed his second straight practice with back spasms. He is a question-mark for the opener on Thursday. Alain Vigneault has stated that the Rangers will not make a roster move until he is healthy. This means Dylan McIlrath will remain a Ranger for a little while longer.
• Nathan Gerbe has decided not to play in Hartford. He will be placed on waivers for his release, and will play in Switzerland.
• Rick Nash will join Marc Staal, Dan Girardi, and Derek Stepan with an ‘A’ on his jersey.
