Vitali Kravtsov - Out again Saturday Kravstsov will sit out again Saturday for roster management purposes, per Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today.
Impact It'll be the seventh consecutive game Kravstov has missed while his name continues to surface in trade rumors. The 2018 first-round pick has six points (three goals, three assists) in 28 games this season.

Jake Leschyshyn - On waivers Leschyshyn was put on waivers by the Rangers on Saturday, per TSN's Chris Johnston.
Impact Leschyshyn was claimed by the Rangers off waivers from Vegas on Jan. 11. He has no points, 55 hits and 11 blocks in 35 contests this season. Leschyshyn was a healthy scratch on Thursday for "roster management reasons," and the Rangers announced their intention to scratch him again Saturday before he was placed on waivers.

Ryan Lindgren - Exits Saturday's game Lindgren (upper body) left Saturday's game against Washington after being injured in the first period and won't return, Jon Lane of NHL.com reports.
Impact Lindgren sustained an upper-body injury following a hit from Capitals forward T.J. Oshie. The Rangers dressed seven defensemen Saturday, so Ben Harpur could see some additional time for the remainder of the contest. An update on Lindgren should come before Sunday's matchup versus Los Angeles.

Jake Leschyshyn - Healthy scratch Saturday Leschyshyn will be a healthy scratch versus Washington on Saturday,
Impact Leschyshyn will not play due to 'roster management reasons' according to the Rangers. He has yet to pick up a point in 35 games this season, 13 with the Rangers and 22 earlier in the season with the Golden Knights.

Jaroslav Halak - Needed in relief Saturday Halak turned aside four of five shots after replacing Igor Shesterkin to begin the third period of Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals.
Impact The Rangers are playing some awful defense these days, and the team has given up at least four goals six times in the last 10 games, making life difficult for whichever goalie is between the pipes. With New York back in action Sunday at home against the Kings, Halak seems likely to get the nod despite his unimpressive 2.72 GAA and .902 save percentage on the season.
FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Mika Zibanejad - Two helpers Saturday Zibanejad picked up two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals.
Impact Both points came in the third period, but the Rangers were in a 5-1 hole after 40 minutes. Zibanejad hadn't found the scoresheet in three straight games coming into Saturday, but he has five multi-point performances in the last 13 contests, piling up 10 goals and 16 points over that stretch. With Patrick Kane rumors heating up, it's possible Zibanejad will have a new winger before the trade deadline.

Igor Shesterkin - Gets hook against Caps Shesterkin stopped 17 of 22 shots before being replaced by Jaroslav Halak to begin the third period of Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals.
Impact The Rangers completely fell apart in the second period, allowing four unanswered goals largely due to some lackadaisical defense and one really poor line change, and Shesherkin was lifted in a desperate attempt to flip the game's momentum. While he couldn't be faulted on any of the pucks that beat him Saturday, the Rangers may be leaning too much on their all-world goalie to bail them out -- Shesterkin's given up at least four goals in four straight starts and hasn't allowed fewer than three in seven straight, leaving him with a lackluster 2.67 GAA and .909 save percentage on the season.

Igor Shesterkin - Starting in Washington Shesterkin will guard the road cage Saturday in Washington, per Arthur Staple of The Athletic.
Impact Shesterkin has been slumping a bit recently -- he's managed a 4-1-0 record in his last five starts despite a subpar .865 save percentage in that span. The 27-year-old netminder will look to get back on track against a Capitals team that's lost six consecutive games. Shesterkin is 25-9-7 this season with a .912 save percentage.
FEBRUARY 25, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Chris Kreider - Two points in loss to Caps Kreider scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Capitals.
Impact Both points came in the third period after the Rangers had already dug themselves a 5-1 hole. Kreider snapped a brief three-game point drought with the performance, and on the season he's up to 25 goals and 41 points through 56 games, the fourth time in his career he's reached the 25-goal plateau.
