The New York Rangers have implemented several changes to their goaltending rotation. Initially, the team placed veteran James Reimer on waivers and moved defenseman Sean Durzi to injured reserve due to an undisclosed injury.

Following Reimer clearing waivers, the Rangers assigned him to their AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack. This move coincided with the activation of Joonas Korpisalo from injured reserve, following his recovery from a lower-body injury and infection. The adjustments were intended to provide relief for rookie goaltender Dylan Garand.
