Artemi Panarin was listed as day-to-day with Peter Laviolette confirming the injury he suffered in Tuesday's preseason game will not have long-term ramifications.

If Panarin is sidelined for an extended period, it could severely impact the Rangers’ season. The 32-year-old is coming off one of the most productive campaigns of his career, scoring 49 goals and 71 assists for 120 points in 82 games.

The New York Rangers are already facing injuries to two key players before the regular season has even started. Artemi Panarin and Ryan Lindgren were sidelined during Tuesday’s exhibition game against their in-state rival New York Islanders at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.

Lindgren suffered an upper-body injury during a fight with Scott Mayfield of the Islanders during Tuesday night's preseason game, and will miss "at least a few weeks," according to head coach Peter Laviolette. The Rangers' regular season opener is Oct. 9 against the Bruins in Boston, which means Lindgren's availability from the start is in doubt.

New York Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette announced that winger Artemi Panarin suffered a lower-body injury during Tuesday’s 6-4 win over the New York Islanders.

The New York Rangers came out on top of a wild one on Tuesday night, completing a 6–4 comeback win over the New York Islanders in their second preseason game.

The Rangers lost two players at once — and three overall — in their comeback 6-4 win over the Islanders in their second exhibition game Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden. Only one returned. Artemi Panarin (lower-body injury) and Ryan Lindgren (upper-body injury) both left Tuesday’s contest and did not return.

Rangers forward Artemi Panarin and defenceman Ryan Lindgren both exited Tuesday’s game early after they sustained a lower-body and upper-body injury respectively.
