Original Post:
Steve Zipay tweets that both Brandon Dubinsky and Wojtek Wolski (ribs) are missing from today’s practice.
Zipay also notes that all seven defensemen as well as the two goalies are on the ice.
…not that I wish injury on anyone, but the Rangers seem to play better when someone is out. So maybe it won’t be a bad thing if Wolski has to miss a few games. 😉
…assuming Dubinsky is getting a maintenance day.
