Bitetto was promoted from the taxi squad to play in Tuesday's game versus the Devils, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto will work on the third pairing, as usual. The 30-year-old blueliner has a goal, nine PIM and seven hits in five outings entering Tuesday.

Bitetto was placed on the taxi squad Saturday, per CBS Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto is currently in a third-pairing role for the Rangers, so he should be back on the active roster prior to Tuesday's game versus the Devils.

Bitetto scored on his only shot in Thursday's 4-2 win over Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto scored just his third goal in 185 career games and first since the 2017-18 season, and it was a beauty. He took an excursion around the offensive zone with the puck before finally sliding in between three Washington defenders and flipping a backhand past the screened goaltender. His first goal with the Rangers will be one to remember for the Long Island native, but Bitetto got under 10 minutes of ice time in a third-pairing role and is a non-factor in fantasy.

Bitetto recorded two blocks, two PIM and four hits over 14:51 of ice time in Monday's 3-1 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto was a physical presence in his Rangers debut, though he played by far the fewest minutes of New York's five healthy defensemen after Brendan Smith (upper body) left in the first period. With Smith potentially out of commission for a while and Anthony DeAngelo having been waived, Bitetto should be a mainstay in the Rangers' lineup for the foreseeable future.

Bitetto was promoted from the taxi squad Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto likely will make his season debut in Monday's home game versus the Penguins because Anthony DeAngelo was waived Sunday. The 30-year-old played a career-high 51 games last season and posted eight points and 145 hits.

Bitetto was waived by the Rangers on Monday, Rick Carpiniello of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto was always a long shot to nail down a spot on the team's blue line, so this move comes as no surprise. He'll likely stick with the taxi squad in case of injuries as the eighth or ninth option on New York's defensive depth chart, though Bitetto could see time in the AHL as well.

Bitetto signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Rangers on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto played 51 games with the Jets last season and posted eight assists, 54 shots on net and 145 hits. He could add depth on the Rangers' blue line next season, but he'll likely stick to the bottom pairing when he gets in the lineup, as veteran blueliner Jack Johnson also signed with the team Friday.

Bitetto (upper body) joined the Jets' secondary group at Thursday's camp session, Mitchell Clinton of JetsTV reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto played in just four of the team's last 13 contests before the league went on hiatus, so his inclusion in the postseason lineup seems unlikely, at best. The defenseman would likely need multiple injuries to pop up in order to see any minutes for Winnipeg during the playoffs.

Bitetto sustained an upper-body injury and will miss Monday's matchup with Arizona, Ken Wiebe of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto was a healthy scratch for the Jets' previous two outings, so his injury is unlikely to affect the majority of fantasy owners. With the New York native on the shelf, the Jets may need to promote a player from the minors in order to provide some blue-line depth.

Bitetto registered an assist and four hits in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Bitetto has assists in consecutive games -- he's been a regular in the lineup since Josh Morrissey (upper body) got injured. The New York native has managed a career-high eight points (all assists), as well as 145 hits, 50 blocked shots and 32 PIM in 51 contests.
