It's always good to get rid of a bothersome pain in the neck.
New York Rangers head coach Alain Vigneault confirmed Thursday that Rick Nash, who missed one game with neck spasms, will return to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Arizona Coyotes.
"It was a really strange thing," Nash said of his neck, according to Blueshirts United. "It felt really good after the game Sunday, everything was real positive, and then Monday it kind of spasmed up - I must have slept on it wrong or something. It's better now, back to full range, still a little tight, but it's fine."
Nash ranks second in the NHL in goals with 37, two back of Alex Ovechkin, and remains on pace to reach 50 for the first time in his career.
