Per Colin Stephenson, Jones and Libor Hajek will draw into the lineup. Jacob Trouba is out with an injury and Anthony Bitetto, who looked exceptionally rocky against the New York Islanders in the Rangers’ 6-1 loss on Tuesday, will be a healthy scratch. Stephenson is also reporting that Jones and Hajek will be the pair tonight, at least to start out. K’Andre Miller and Brendan Smith will be another pairing.
