Impact Edstrom looks poised to be ready to play when the Rangers face the Flyers on Thursday.

Whenever Edstrom does return, it will likely come at the expense of Brett Berard.

Lands on LTIR Edstrom (lower body) was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

Impact Edstrom suffered a lower-body injury at practice at the beginning of December. He was initially deemed day-to-day, but his recovery hasn't progressed the way the team had hoped, so the Rangers will elect to shut him down for the time being. It's not yet clear when the 25-year-old will be in the mix to return to game action, but he's slated to be sidelined until at least late December following Wednesday's move.

DECEMBER 10, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not traveling with the team Edstrom (lower body) will not join the Rangers for their trip to Chicago on Wednesday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.

Impact Edstrom will be sidelined for his fifth consecutive contest due to his lower-body issue.

In his 24 outings, the Swede has generated just four points while dishing out 48 hits.

DECEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out of lineup Edstrom (lower body) won't be an option for Sunday's home contest versus the Golden Knights, per Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic.

Ruled out versus Dallas Edstrom (lower body) won't be available against the Stars on Tuesday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of The Athletic reports.

Impact Edstrom has found the back of the net in two of his last six outings, his only goals on the season. With the 25-year-old forward on the shelf, Conor Sheary looks poised to get into the lineup Tuesday. Given his offensive limitations, Edstrom's absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy managers.

Labeled day-to-day Edstrom (lower body) is day-to-day, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports Monday.

Impact Edstrom was hurt during practice earlier Monday, and considering he's now labeled day-to-day, it seems unlikely the Swedish forward will be available for Tuesday's home game versus the Stars.

Pots game-winning goal Edstrom scored a goal and dished out three hits in Monday's 3-2 win over the Blues.

Impact Edstrom's tally midway through the final period would stand as Monday's game winner. With the twine finder, he's up to two goals, four points and 42 hits through 21 games this season. The 25-year-old forward has been a consistent name in the lineup for New York, who has been dealing with multiple injuries throughout the early stages of this season. While his numbers keep him off the fantasy radar in standard formats, he has both of his goals in the last three games and has sneaky value in banger formats while serving on the Rangers' checking line. However, Edstrom would need to continue his recent offensive production to warrant any pickups from the waiver wire.

Barring an increase from his average over 9:39 of ice time, Edstrom won't be an option in most fantasy formats.
