Line changes: New York Rangers projected lineups for upcoming game against the Lightning
Tonight, at 7:00PM the New York Rangers will officially return from their holiday break as they will face off against Tampa Bay, in hopes to turn their season around.
However, New York Rangers reporter Mollie Walker of the New York Post has revealed the Rangers projected lineups, along with a few noticeable changes:
#NYR lines and D pairs at morning skate:
Panarin-Trocheck-Lafrenière
Kreider-Zibanejad-Smith
Cuylle-Chytil-Berard
Edström-Carrick-Vesey
Lindgren-Fox
Miller-Borgen
Vaakanainen-Schneider
Ruhwedel to Hartford means K'Andre Miller, who missed six games with an upper body injury, is coming off injured reserve and rejoining the active roster. #NYR
Along with that, it was confirmed by Peter Laviolette that Miller will be paired with
Will Borgen.
The other noticeable difference, is that
Zac Jones will not be in the lineup and will be a healthy scratch.

And finally, according to recent reports it will be
Igor Shesterkin who will get the start in nets tonight as he was the first goalie off the ice today during the teams practice.

Just keep in mind this is just a projection, as nothing has officially been confirmed by the New York Rangers themself. Once we get the official confirmation we will be sure to keep you updated.
