There was displeasure from Rangers coach Alain Vigneault with his fourth line, and it looks as if he’s going to do something about it.

Following Tuesday night’s 4-1 loss to the Jets at the Garden, Vigneault said the unit of Tanner Glass, Dominic Moore and Jarret Stoll “spent too much time in their own end.” Now it looks as if Glass is going to come out of the lineup for Thursday’s game against the Canadiens in Montreal.

After Wednesday’s practice in Westchester, Vigneault said he hadn’t made up his mind on what changes he was going to make, but he had Glass participating as an extra defenseman while Jesper Fast and Emerson Etem rotated in with Moore and Stoll. Glass had played the previous two games in place of Fast.

Etem is the lone player left on the roster who hasn’t played, coming to the team in an offseason trade with the Ducks. The quick-footed 23-year-old struggled to assert himself in training camp, and has stayed with the team partially because he can’t be sent down to AHL Hartford without clearing waivers — which he likely wouldn’t.

“His camp was OK, but he did not, with the way he played, dislodge anybody that we’ve used so far,” Vigneault said. “There is a possibility that he might play [Thursday], I still haven’t made up my mind on that. But he is a young player that our pro scouts said a lot of good things, thought he had a lot of upside. I’m hoping to put him in the lineup soon, and when we do, I’m hoping that he’s going to be able to contribute.”

Etem has been working hard in practice, and his main focus for when he does get in is playing a simple game.

“I think for me, the biggest thing is just winning the 50-50 battles,” Etem said. “It wasn’t so much me not getting systems down in preseason or whatever happened, it comes down to those puck battles, whether it’s D-zone, or neutral zone, offensive zone, it’s about coming up with the puck and making a good decision with it.

“I think one play after another, I just have to keep building off making those positive plays.”

Thursday will mark Henrik Lundqvist’s fifth straight start in goal to start the season, and Vigneault said that was always part of the plan.

“It’s all Hank, baby,” the coach said.

Vigneault also made it rather clear new backup Antti Raanta likely would make his Rangers’ debut Sunday afternoon, when the Devils visit the Garden.

Dylan McIlrath was assuming he would be scratched again as Dan Boyle returns to the lineup Thursday. McIlrath made his season debut Tuesday, and it was hard for the 23-year-old defenseman to get a full evaluation of his game during a contest rife with penalties.

“It was OK,” McIlrath said. “I thought it was a little sloppy in the first [period] getting my execution down. It was just a weird game, not a lot of flow to it. It was a good first game to get out of the way, for sure.”
