Brett Berard News: Called up Thursday

Berard was recalled from AHL Hartford on Thursday.

Berard spent some time with the Rangers earlier this season, and he recorded no points, 15 hits, nine blocked shots and six PIM while averaging 10:42 of ice time over 12 appearances with the NHL club. He was sent to the minors in early January but will provide additional depth for the Blueshirts ahead of the Olympic break.
