Brisson was the 29th overall pick of the Golden Knights in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and has spent most of the 2023-24 campaign in the AHL but has been effective when called up. The 22-year-old Brisson has eight points (2G / 6A) in 14 games with Vegas this season.
Jones has appeared in only one of the Rangers' previous three games and will return to the press box on Tuesday as Erik Gustafsson returns to the lineup. The 23-year-old has set career highs in almost all statistical categories in 2023-24, with two goals, nine points, 42 SOG, eight PIMs and a +1 plus/minus through 31 games played.
Rempe will continue his pattern of going in and out of the Rangers' lineup on Tuesday as he is replaced by Jack Roslovic vs. the New York Islanders. The 21-year-old has been the talk of the NHL with his aggressive style this season and has a goal, an assist, 11 SOG and 69 PIMs in 15 games played.
Shesterkin will look to extend his two-game win streak as he takes the Rangers' crease for the third time in four games on Tuesday vs. interstate rivals, the New York Islanders. The 28-year-old will look for his 35th win of the season on Tuesday for a third straight season as he has a 34-16-2 record, 2.64 GAA and .911 SV%. He'll host the red-hot New York Islanders, who have won their last four games but are 23rd in the NHL in goals per game (2.95).
Ivan Miroshnichenko will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday, allowing Aube-Kubel to re-enter the lineup. Aube-Kubel has only played one of the last five games for the Capitals and has zero points in his last 13 contests.
Brisson made the most of his one-game appearance with Vegas as he extended his personal point streak to four games last game vs. Arizona but will be a healthy scratch on Monday vs. Vancouver as Tomas Hertl makes his debut. The 22-year-old centre has been very productive in his limited appearances this season, with two goals and eight points in 14 games played while averaging just 12:22 TOI/GP.
The Rangers will turn to Quick for the second time in the last four games as the Rangers visit the Detroit Red Wings. Quick struggled in his last outing, allowing five goals on 32 shots (.844 SV%), but received adequate offensive support from his team in an eventual 8-5 win over the Arizona Coyotes. The Rangers enter on Friday as -137 road favourites.
Vaakanainen has appeared in 65 games this season for Anaheim but will head to the press box on Friday as he is replaced by Radko Gudas, who is returning from injury. The 25-year-old played in 68 career NHL games across six separate seasons before sticking with the Ducks this year and has taken a massive step forward with his 14 points (1G/13A), 66 SOG and 26 PIMs in 65 games in 2023-24.
Matt Rempe will be a healthy scratch on Friday, allowing Brodzinski to draw back into the lineup. Brodzinski has been held off the scoresheet in five of the last six games.
Jonny Brodzinski will draw back into the lineup on Friday, making Rempe a healthy scratch. Rempe was ejected from Wednesday's 4-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils after receiving a fighting major only two seconds into the contest.
Derek Ryan will draw back into the Oiler's lineup on Friday, making Carrick a healthy scratch. Carrick played the last two games and recorded two points (0G / 2A).
The Rangers will likely turn to Quick for the second time in the last four games as the Rangers visit the Detroit Red Wings. Quick struggled in his last outing, allowing five goals on 32 shots (.844 SV%), but received adequate offensive support from his team in an eventual 8-5 win over the Arizona Coyotes. The Rangers enter on Friday as -137 road favourites.
Kaliyev will take a seat on Thursday as the Kings opt to get some fresh legs into their lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Akil Thomas will draw into the lineup in his place.
