Status report
Rossi, a forward, will not play because of a lower-body injury he sustained in Minnesota’s 2-1 overtime loss at the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday. It will end his streak of 173 consecutive games played since April 10, 2023. Wild coach John Hynes said he’s day to day. … Jones will play his first NHL game since Jan. 15. … Soucy was activated off injured reserve Monday. He is considered a game-time decision, Rangers coach Mike Sullivan said. Soucy has missed the past four games with an upper-body injury. … The Rangers re-assigned defenseman Scott Morrow to Hartford of the American Hockey League on Monday to make room on the roster to activate Soucy.
