1:27 PM: The Rangers have announced that Ryan Carpenter has been called up from Hartford and that Julien Gauthier has been placed on IR.
Carpenter’s call up likely means that either Vitali Kravtsov or Artemi Panarin, who didn’t practice yesterday, or another forward will be a game-time decision tonight.
