Metro Notes: Rangers, Capitals, Hurricanes

Goaltender James Reimer could make his New York Rangers debut against the Los Angeles Kings after being the first goalie off the ice at practice. The 38-year-old recently signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with New York following his release from a professional tryout with the AHL's Hartford Wolf Pack. His arrival provides depth alongside rookie Dylan Garand after Igor Shesterkin suffered a season-ending injury.

Elsewhere in the Metropolitan Division, newly acquired Jack St. Ivany skated with the Washington Capitals, while defenseman Jakob Chychrun took a maintenance day. For the Carolina Hurricanes, defenseman Alexander Nikishin is not yet practicing with the NHL roster following a contract holdout and may require an AHL conditioning stint, while forward Taylor Hall returned to full practice after an upper-body injury.
