The Rangers have sent J.T Miller to Hartford (AHL).
Miller was a healthy scratch in the last four Rangers contests. He has struggled this season with just one goal and one assist in 15 games. His return to the AHL likely means that Taylor Pyatt is nearing a return.
Line Change
Zibanejad has been moved to the Senators second line with Kyle Turris and Clarke MacArthur.
Zibanejad has seen his ice-time increase in all three games since being recalled. He has one goal and one assist while averaging 14:05 TOI. The move to the second line will help the former sixth overall pick stay in the NHL.
Senators head coach Paul MacLean says Mika Zibanejad is here because of a minor injury to Jean-Gabriel Pageau.
Zibanejad will be considered for the lineup tomorrow, but does not sound like he is up with the Senators to stay.

Rangers say they have assigned JT Miller to the AHL. With Ryan Callahan returning to the lineup on Monday, Miller would have been bumped out. He will return to the Hartford Wolf Pack where he will see a lot more playing time.
Miller registered one shot and an even plus/minus rating in 11:58 of playing time in the Rangers season opener.

Mika Zibanejad has been assigned to Binghamton (AHL).
This is surprising, Zibanejad had a great preseason and looked like a lock to make the Sens roster. He had seven goals and 13 assists (20 points) in 42 games for Ottawa last season. The move was likely made because Zibanejad is waiver exempt and the Senators did not want to expose Stephane Da Costa to waivers. Expect to see Zibanejad back with Ottawa soon.
