Thompson was a third-round pick of the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2022 NHL Entry Draft that has yet to play an NHL game. The 24-year-old forward scored 15 points (6G / 9A) in 40 games with the Rockford IceHogs (AHL) this season.

Edstrom has not played a game for the Rangers since November 29th, but will return to the lineup on Thursday against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The 25-year-old Swedish forward is averaging 9:34 time-on-ice and has four points (2G / 2A) in 24 games this season.

Shesterkin is coming off one of his worst outings of the season, allowing five goals on 29 shots (.828 SV%) in a 5-4 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets. It marked the first time that Shesterkin has allowed more than four goals in a game since October. That said, before his most recent blip, the 30-year-old Shesterkin remained a reliable presence for an otherwise disappointing and inconsistent Rangers team, posting a stellar 2.12 GAA and .929 SV% in his previous nine appearances (5-1-2). The Rangers enter Thursday's contest as -128 home favourites against a reeling Toronto Maple Leafs team that suffered a 4-3 shootout loss to the New Jersey Devils last night to extend their post-Olympic losing streak to five games (0-3-2).

Brisson was drafted 29th overall by the Vegas Golden Knights in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, but has yet to make his presence felt at the NHL level. He has spent most of the 2025-26 season in the AHL, where he has 23 points (13G / 10A) in 46 games with the Hartford Wolf Pack. He has one assist in three games with the Golden Knights this season.

Parssinen is no stranger to the NHL, with 56 points (22G / 34A) in 151 career games, but has been limited to only 14 games with the Rangers this season. The 25-year-old Finnish forward only has 31 points (16G / 15A) in his last 106 NHL games after scoring 25 points (6G / 19A) in his first 45.

Chmelar made his NHL debut earlier this season, going without a point in six games with the Rangers. The 22-year-old Czech forward has 25 points (8G / 17A) in 46 games with the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL) this season.

Morrow was a second-round pick of the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2021 NHL Entry Draft. The 23-year-old defenseman has spent most of the season with the Rangers, scoring six assists in 29 games, but has not been able to make a lasting impact and will spend some time in the AHL to work on his game.

Miller played 19:23 time-on-ice in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets, but seemingly suffered an upper-body injury that will keep him sidelined for at least one week. The 32-year-old Miller is having a miserable season with the Rangers. After producing 1.08 points-per-game over his last five seasons, Miller has just 38 points (14G / 24A) through 51 games in 2025-26 (0.75 PTS/GP) while sporting a career-worst -24 plus/minus.

After nearly two months without playing a game, due to a lower-body injury and the Olympic break, Shesterkin hasn't missed a beat, posting a solid 2.37 GAA and .912 SV% in two games (1-0-1). The Rangers have had a disappointing season, but Shesterkin has remained reliable, posting a 2.38 GAA and .917 SV% in his last 19 appearances since mid-December (11-4-3). Still, the Rangers enter Monday's contest as slight +107 home underdogs against a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has followed up a seven-game winning streak with two straight losses (0-1-1).

Seattle placed Kartye on waivers on Thursday, and he was claimed by the New York Rangers on Friday. The 24-year-old Kartye averaged 10:42 time-on-ice and had eight points (3G / 5A) in 40 games with Seattle this season.

Berard has zero points through 13 games with the Rangers this season and will head back to the AHL. The 23-year-old forward has 18 points (6G / 12A) in 34 games this season with the Hartford Wolf Pack (AHL).
