Status report
Comrie is expected to start after Hellebuyck made 26 saves in a 5-4 shootout loss at the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday. No other lineup changes are expected for Winnipeg. … The Rangers signed Fortescue to a three-year entry-level contract Saturday after the defenseman completed his junior season at Boston College. … Quick is day to day; the goalie left practice early Saturday; Garand was recalled from Hartford of the American Hockey League on Friday and will back up Shesterkin. … Laba, a forward, and Vaakanainen, a defenseman, each is week to week after being injured during a 6-3 loss to the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday.
