Sheary (lower body) is going to be placed on long-term injured reserve Thursday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary will need to miss at least the next 10 games for the Rangers, though it could certainly be longer. With the veteran winger on the shelf, the Rangers bolstered the forward group by calling up Brett Berard, Justin Dowling and Anton Blidh.

Sheary suffered a lower-body injury and won't return to Wednesday's game against Washington.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary had two shots in 6:39 of ice time before he left the game, and he now has nine points in 37 outings this campaign. The Rangers also lost Noah Laba (upper body) during the clash against the Capitals. Brennan Othmann is likely to draw into the lineup if Sheary or Laba aren't available Friday versus Florida.

Sheary registered two assists during Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Canadiens.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary picked up two secondary helpers throughout the contest, with his first assist on a power play during the opening period. The 33-year-old winger is up to eight assists, nine points, 48 shots on goal and 22 blocks through 30 games this season. Sheary's first season with the Rangers has been a solid "get-right" campaign at the NHL level after he appeared in just five games away from AHL Syracuse last year. While he won't get back to his career high of 53 points from the 2016-17 campaign, Sheary has a decent chance of hitting the 25-point mark if he maintains his current role in the Rangers' middle six.

Sheary scored a goal Saturday in a 3-2 overtime loss to Colorado.

EDGE Analysis

It was Sheary's first goal and seventh point of the season in his 27th game. It was a goal scorer's goal, as he cut across the offensive zone and ripped a shot over Mackenzie Blackwood's glove on the far side. The winger has never been able to recapture the glory of his sophomore year in 2016-17 when he put up 23 goals and 53 points in 61 regular-season appearances with Pittsburgh.

Sheary notched an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary was a healthy scratch for the previous three games after going nine contests without a point. The 33-year-old got back in due to the absence of Adam Edstrom (lower body). Sheary has six helpers, 37 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and 11 hits across 25 appearances this season, and that production is too low to help most fantasy managers.

Sheary fired two shots on goal in a 3-2 win over the Blues on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary has maintained a bottom-six role lately, but his offense has gone cold. He's picked up just one assist with 18 shots on net and a plus-1 rating over 12 outings in November. The veteran winger is still looking for his first goal of the campaign -- he has five helpers, 36 shots, 15 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 24 appearances.

Sheary notched a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-1 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary picked up his first point in three games with the Rangers after signing just before the start of the year. The 33-year-old has added three shots on net and four blocked shots. Sheary's in a middle-six role for now, and if he can find consistent offense, he could be a decent depth forward in fantasy.

Sheary inked a one-year, two-way contract with the Rangers on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary, who entered camp on a professional tryout agreement, clearly showed the team enough during preseason to secure a full NHL deal. It is a two-way contract for the veteran winger, which means he may have to spend some time in the minors this season. Still, Sheary is a two-time Stanley Cup champion with plenty of NHL experience and should bolster the Blueshirts' bottom six, especially since he'll be reunited with head coach Mike Sullivan, who was Sheary's coach in Pittsburgh.

Sheary has been signed by the Rangers to a PTO, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary and the Lightning agreed to terminate his contract earlier this offseason, and he had been a free agent to this point, but the Rangers will give him a chance to make their NHL club with this tryout contract. Should he make the team, he will reunite with the coach he played for, and won Stanley Cups with, when he was a Penguin in Mike Sullivan. Coming off of a season in which he played just five games at the NHL level, the onus is now on the 33-year-old to prove that he still has some gas left in the tank and can contribute to a NHL roster. If he does, it will likely be in no more than a depth role.

Sheary was placed on unconditional waivers Sunday by the Lightning for the purpose of a contract termination, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

EDGE Analysis

Sheary, who had one year left on his contract at $2 million, has opted for a contract termination with the hopes of latching on elsewhere as an NHL player next season. The 33-year-old played just five games with the Lightning in 2024-25, spending most of the season at AHL Syracuse, where he had 20 goals and 41 assists in 59 games played. It was the first time he saw time in the AHL since the 2015-16 season. Assuming he clears, he'll join the class of unrestricted free agents July 1.
