The New York Rangers announced that forward Vladislav Namestnikov is now in the league's concussion protocol and will not be going out on the road with the team, which is a 2-game stretch, Thursday and Saturday, but they do have one more game on Sunday and there is a chance that he could be ready for that game. Concussion protocol is making sure that the symptoms don't come back after exercise, so there's a chance over the next few days for it to clear, but that's not a guarantee.The Rangers have also noted that Mats Zuccarello also won't be on this trip, as he's still recovering from a groin injury.
Ryan is currently sitting on Namestnikov, who has been less-than-stellar with only 9 points in 24 games and an injury like a concussion could make him sway away from the young Russian. Zuccarello has 10 points in 17 games, but has been playing hurt, so his numbers aren't what they could have been for John P. this season.
