Rangers' Oscar Lindberg: Quiet in season debut

Lindberg -- making his first appearance of the season after being activated from injured reserve earlier in the day -- skated 10:37 and took one shot on goal Sunday against Arizona.

Analysis:

Lindberg had some big moments with the Rangers last year, ultimately totaling 28 points and a plus-12 rating in 68 games, but the start of his 2016-17 season was delayed by his recovery from offseason hip surgery. Now that he's off IR, he'll serve on the Rangers' fourth line; the nearly 25-year-old Swede has no clear path to top-six minutes right now, severely limiting his fantasy utility.
