Calum Ritchie Injury: Unavailable versus Rangers

Ritchie (lower body) will not be in action for Wednesday's clash with the Rangers, Stefen Rosner of NHL.com reports.

While Ritchie was deemed day-to-day with his lower-body problem, a return to the lineup against the Rangers on Thursday in the second half of the back-to-back seems unlikely. Prior to getting hurt, Ritchie had produced four assists in his last five outings, which should be enough get him back into the lineup despite the team's acquisition of Ondrej Palat from New Jersey on Tuesday.
