Joonas Korpisalo Placed on IR With Lower-Body Injury

Joonas Korpisalo sustained a lower-body injury and was placed on injured reserve Thursday by the New York Rangers. Labelled week-to-week, the 32-year-old netminder will be sidelined for the short term. Last season, Korpisalo went 14-9-6 in 31 regular-season outings with a 3.15 GAA, .894 save percentage, and one shutout. With Korpisalo out, Dylan Garand has been called up to serve as the No. 2 option for New York, according to a person familiar with the situation.
