Gustafsson (lower body) won't play Saturday against the Kings, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Matthew Robertson was recalled from AHL Hartford on Friday, indicating the Rangers would need some defensive depth Saturday. It'll be the first game Gustafsson's missed this campaign. He has four goals and 21 points through 44 outings. Zac Jones will likely slot into Gustafsson's spot on the third pairing.
