Will Borgen missed the New York Rangers’ practice on Friday, as he’s dealing with an apparent upper-body injury.
It’s unclear when or how Borgen sustained this injury since he played the entirety of Wednesday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Mike Sullivan confirmed that Borgen is day-to-day, but he did not rule him out for the Rangers’ Saturday night matchup against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
With Borgen out during practice, Braden Schneider paired up with Carson Soucy, and Matthew Robertson played alongside Urho Vaakanainen.
Explaining Mike Sullivan's Cautious Approach With Gabe Perreault
In the second period of the New York <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/new-york-rangers">Rangers</a>’ 7-3 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night, Mike Sullivan moved Will Cuylle up to play with Mika Zibanejad and J.T. Miller, while moving Gabe Perreault down on the third line with Noah Laba and Conor Sheary.
In 18 games, Borgen has recorded one goal, two assists, and three points while averaging 18:43 minutes.
