Vitali Kravtsov out of the lineup Wednesday

New York Rangers forward Vilati Kravtsov will be out of the lineup Wednesday with an upper-body injury.

Fantasy Impact

Kravtsov originally got a crack at second-line duties alongside Artemi Panarin and Vincent Trocheck to open the season, but injuries have since taken their toll. He was injured on opening night and has now played just three games on the season, going pointless with zero shots in the process. Julien Gauthier makes his season debut in Kravtsov's place.
