Adam Fox Departs Early Thursday
1 year agoNew York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox left Thursday night's contest versus the Carolina Hurricanes early with an apparent injury following a collision with Hurricanes center Sebastian Aho. He has been ruled out for the remainder of the contest. Obviously, any lengthy absence for the 25-year-old would be a significant blow for the Rangers. Fox has erupted for 11 points through the first nine games this season after registering 72 points in 82 games last season, finishing as the Norris Trophy runner-up to Erik Karlsson in the process. In his absence, Erik Gustafsson is the likeliest candidate to take over as the lone defenseman on the Rangers' top power-play unit while Jacob Trouba would likely take over as the No. 1 defenseman on the right side of the club's blueline.
