NY Rangers lines tonight: Shesterkin, Rempe return; Kaliyev to debut

Per Dennis Gorman, the NY Rangers lines tonight will see several changes. Igor Shesterkin will return from his stint on IR. Matt Rempe will also return from his suspension. Shesterkin in particular will be a welcomed sight, as the improved offensive play with Igor in net might lead to a few more wins and points in the standings. Arthur Kaliyev will also make his Rangers debut on the third line.

Chris Kreider remains out, and Filip Chytil will be out tonight too. Jimmy Vesey is the odd-man out tonight on wing, and Zac Jones remains in purgatory. The full lines (defense pairs remain the same):

Artemi Panarin-Vincent Trocheck-Alexis Lafreniere
Will Cuylle-Mika Zibanejad-Reilly Smith
Brett Berard-Jonny Brodzinski-Arthur Kaliyev
Adam Edstrom-Sam Carrick-Matt Rempe

Louis Domingue has been returned to Hartford to clear space for Shesterkin’s return.
