Coach Alain Vigneault would only say that Brassard (undisclosed) is "still day-to-day" after Thursday's morning skate in advance of Game 3 vs. the Canadiens, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Analysis:

Vigneault's words would seem to suggest Brassard will miss his second straight game, but the center's status should be known for certain based on his participation (or lack thereof) during the Rangers' pregame skate.
