The Rangers limped into and out of the playoffs last spring, but that had little to do with injuries following a season that included very few man-games lost in comparison to most NHL teams.

This year's Blueshirts already have been more significantly banged-up, especially this week with Brandon Dubinsky lost for at least a month and other key players -including goalie Henrik Lundqvist and captain Chris Drury - remaining questionable for Thursday's home game against Atlanta.

"It's a time that we're trying to get anybody with some soreness or any type of problems, to try to get them some rest," said coach John Tortorella, who will not hold a practice Tuesday. "That's what we're trying to do with some of the bumps and bruises as we go through it."

Dubinsky sported a cast at the team's practice facility Monday in Greenburgh, but he didn't speak with reporters. Tortorella confirmed the third-year center will be out for "an extended period of time," believed to be 4-to-6 weeks, after suffering a broken right hand blocking a shot Saturday in Calgary.
