Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Chips in with helper
Ryan Lindgren recorded an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Flames.Lindgren ended his nine-game drought by helping out on an Alexis Lafreniere goal in the second period. The 26-year-old Lindgren has been playing on a shutdown pairing with Jacob Trouba instead of in his usual spot alongside Adam Fox. Lindgren is now at two points, 11 shots on net, 21 hits, 25 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 13 appearances this season. He's never produced a 20-point campaign, so the bulk of his limited fantasy value comes from physical play.

Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Debuting Tuesday
Ryan Lindgren (upper body) will make his season debut against Montreal on Tuesday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.Lindgren is expected to join Victor Mancini on the New York Rangers' third pairing, which will see Zac Jones and Chad Ruhwedel relegated to spots in the press box as healthy scratches. Considering the 26-year-old Lindgren has never reached the 20-point threshold in his five-year NHL career, fantasy players probably shouldn't be expecting a ton of offensive output from him this season.

Mercogliano of USA Today reports.Lindgren isn't eligible to come off injured reserve until Thursday's matchup with Detroit but seems to be making positive strides in his recovery. Considering the 26-year-old defenseman has never reached the 20-point threshold during his five-year NHL career, fantasy managers probably shouldn't be banking on him offering much in terms of fantasy value even once cleared to return.

Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Set to miss Opening Night

Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Could miss Opening Night
Ryan Lindgren (upper body) is expected to be sidelined for 2-3 weeks, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports Wednesday.Lindgren was injured following a fight with Scott Mayfield on Tuesday and now seems set for a stint on the sidelines. If he is back on the short end of that 2-3 week timeframe, the blueliner could still return to action to face the Penguins on Oct. 9. Connor Mackey could see an uptick in ice time during Lindgren's potential absence.

Rangers' Ryan Lindgren: Exits Tuesday's contest
Ryan Lindgren (upper body) won't return to Tuesday's preseason game versus the Islanders.Lindgren fought Scott Mayfield after the Islanders' blueliner's knee-on-knee hit on Filip Chytil in the first period. It's unclear if that's when Lindgren's injury occurred, and it's possible the New York Rangers are taking a cautious approach with the gritty defenseman given that it's only the preseason. The 26-year-old's status should be updated prior to Thursday's game versus the Bruins.
