As expected, Strome (upper body) is "ready to go" for Wednesday's season opener versus Washington, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

Strome missed Tuesday's practice with an upper-body issue, but he was always expected to be fine for Wednesday's regular-season opener. Strome, who racked up 14 goals and 49 points through 56 contests last campaign, is expected to center the Rangers' second line and top power-play unit against the Capitals.
