With injuries mounting and the Rangers seemingly unable to play like an NHL team consistently, the Rangers lines tonight got a minor shakeup. Brennan Othmann will be scratched tonight, as Conor Sheary draws back in. Jonny Brodzinski is also out, with Will Cuylle jumping back into a top-six spot. On defense, nothing will change as Urho Vaakanainen will again be the healthy scratch. Adam Fox will not be returning tonight.

Fox is currently skating in full with the team. Whether he returns on New Year’s Eve at Washington or for the Winter Classic against Florida remains to be seen.
