Rangers' Brandon Pirri: Scratched in six straight

Pirri sat out of Monday's game against Columbus as a healthy scratch -- his sixth consecutive game watching from the press box.

Analysis:

The Rangers' forward corps is quite healthy right now, and Pirri hasn't played in February as a result. With his massive power-play ice time having resulted in a mere 16 points over his first 48 contests, it's understandable that New York's looking in other directions -- specifically, Oscar Lindberg, who's been doing solid work on the fourth line.
