The Rangers held forward Artemi Panarin, their leading scorer, out of the lineup for roster management reasons.

It's likely Artemi Panarin has played his final game with the Rangers as they work to facilitate a trade, sources said.

Panarin isn't expected to play again before the Olympic break, adds Friedman.
