I have always thought he would get a new two way contract, as the Rangers have the upper hand when he is a RFA. I do not think any other team will give an offers sheet to Zuccarello.
But if the Rangers in fact have in mind to offer him a one way contract, how does this injury affect this decision, as long as the prognosis are good? A fractured wrist is not an uncommon injury in sports, and my guess most of the players suffered from it come back from it.
6-8 weeks are IMO not too bad. I feared longer than that. Question is, will Torts put him back on the team. We are talking around the end of april, beginning of may. Chances are good that the Rangers ar still in the cup, and if lucky he might be back for the Conference semi finals actually....
