Mika Zibanejad Out For Next Three Games
5 years agoNew York Rangers center Mika Zibanejad will remain sidelined for his team's next three games due to an upper-body injury. The 26-year-old sustained the injury in his team contest against the Boston Bruins back on October 27th and has missed the Rangers' past six games. Considering Zibanejad has yet to fully participate in a full practice in over two weeks, the team is clearly taking a patient approach with its top center and doesn't seem likely to reinsert him back into the lineup until he's fully healthy. The news comes as more disappointment to fantasy owners that saw Zibanejad cruise to an impressive start out of the gate - posting eight points in his first two games. The next game the Swedish native could potentially suit up for will come on November 20th versus the Capitals.
