Former Bruins forward Blake Wheeler missed the last 41 games of the season with the Rangers and made his return last game but was only on the ice for 9 minutes.
Wheeler was absent from morning skate ahead of game 6 meaning his injury has ramped back up and Jimmy Vesey is still out after taking a dirty hit earlier in the series.
For NYR, Blake Wheeler is not skating this morning. He's a little banged up. Anton Blidh came on the trip and is an extra forward on the ice this morning.
It looks like Anton Blidh will be stepping in for the Rangers in a crucial game 6 as their season in on the line.
