- The New York Rangers placed veteran goaltender James Reimer on waivers Thursday, with the 38-year-old potentially headed to the American Hockey League's Hartford Wolf Pack if unclaimed by other NHL clubs.
- Signed last month, the veteran was meant to provide relief for Dylan Garand, who played nearly nonstop after franchise goaltender Igor Shesterkin suffered a season-ending knee injury.
- In his only start on October 26, Reimer allowed three goals on eight shots in 20 minutes before being pulled during a home loss to the Los Angeles Kings.

- With 540 games of NHL experience, the veteran remains available to other teams, marking a swift conclusion to his tenure after the Rangers sought veteran depth to address their injury crisis.
