Status Report:
Rempe will return after missing four games with an upper-body injury. … K’Andre Miller is a game-time decision, Rangers coach Peter Laviolette said. Miller missed practice Sunday because of an illness and didn’t participate in an optional morning skate. If he can’t play, Jones, a defenseman, is the likeliest candidate to replace him.
