The New York Rangers were dealt some bad news Thursday, as head coach Alain Vigneault announced that center Mika Zibanejad is out indefinitely with a concussion.

Zibanejad was a late scratch for the Rangers' contest against the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night. The Rangers called the injury an upper-body ailment at the time.

New York made a move earlier Thursday to shore up its forward depth, acquiring veteran pivot Peter Holland from the Montreal Canadiens.

Through 24 games this season for New York, Zibanejad has been nothing short of sensational, leading the team in goal-scoring (11) and points (22).
