Geoff Burke / USA Today
The New York Rangers will reportedly be without forward Mats Zuccarello for their entire playoff series against the Washington Capitals.
Zuccarello will not play in the second round due to a suspected concussion, Larry Brooks of the New York Post reports.
The Rangers winger left Game 5 against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday after being struck in the head by a shot off the stick of teammate Ryan McDonagh.
Zuccarello was ruled out indefinitely on Monday.
His availability beyond the second round is also in doubt, according to the report.
Zuccarello registered two assists in New York's five-game series win over the Penguins.
