Some expected Rangers lineup changes, as all three of Justin Braun, Tyler Motte, Andrew Copp are expected to be in the lineup tonight. The lines, per Vince Mercogliano, are as expected.
At the #NYR morning skate and the rushes are pretty much what we predicted yesterday:
Kreider – Zib – Laf
Panarin – Strome – Vatrano
Copp – Chytil – Hunt
Motte – Goodrow – Reaves— Vince Z. Mercogliano (@vzmercogliano) March 22, 2022
Greg McKegg and Jonny Brodzinski are scratched from the forwards, again as expected. Also expected is that Justin Braun will slide in for Braden Schneider, who has had a rough two games or so and could use a break. This also gives the Rangers, and us, a great chance to see all the additions and what the new look lineup will be.
Remember the Rangers are still without Kaapo Kakko and Kevin Rooney. It’s safe to assume Kakko comes in for Hunt, and you just shuffle the top nine however you want. Rooney likely comes in for Reaves, and I’d venture a guess that Reaves rotates in with Motte going forward.
