Edstrom scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Edstrom's goal was his first point in five games since he returned from a lower-body injury that cost him three months. The 25-year-old is in a bottom-six role for now, and it's unclear if he'll play regularly for the season of the season. He's contributed just five points with 27 shots on net, 55 hits and a plus-4 rating over 29 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

Edstrom suffered a lower-body injury at practice at the beginning of December. He was initially deemed day-to-day, but his recovery hasn't progressed the way the team had hoped, so the Rangers will elect to shut him down for the time being. It's not yet clear when the 25-year-old will be in the mix to return to game action, but he's slated to be sidelined until at least late December following Wednesday's move.
