The New York Rangers are having a hard time with injuries right now, as key players are out for varying durations. Defenseman Ryan Lindgren is currently unavailable because of a lower-body injury he suffered in a recent game, which makes it unclear when he will be able to play again.
Meanwhile, center Jacob Trouba is likely to be out for two or three weeks because of an injury to his lower body. Additionally, forwards Blake Wheeler and Filip Chytil have been ruled out for the rest of the season with injuries to their lower bodies and upper bodies, respectively.
As the Rangers move into the home stretch of the season, these absences may cause many problems, and they need backup players to step up and fill the void left by these important players.

Additionally, center Mark Scheifele is on the injury list for the Jets, but his ability to play in future games is still being checked.
