Per Vince Mercogliano, Kaapo Kakko is back at practice at on his regular line.
So, to sum it up, here’s what we’ve got for forwards today:
Laf – McKegg – Kreider
Panarin – Strome – Kakko
Blais – Chytil – Goodrow
Hunt – Rooney – GauthierObviously, McKegg is holding down Mika’s spot while the No. 1 center has a maintenance day. #NYR

The Rangers have reverted back to their lines from the first two games, as expected. The only difference is Julien Gauthier in for the injured Ryan Reaves. And yes, Greg McKegg is just a placeholder for Mika Zibanejad.
The Rangers haven’t had their full lineup since the second game of the season, so this is certainly a welcomed sight. A part of me is disappointed that Lafreniere-Chytil-Blais wasn’t kept intact, but that’s just a minor quibble. Definitely looking forward to seeing the Rangers fully healthy and hopefully getting that offense solved.
