New York Rangers forward Derek Stepan may be able to join the team for Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals despite having his jaw broken in Game 3, according to NHL.com's Arpon Basu.
Stepan sat out Game 4 after a hit from Montreal Canadiens forward Brandon Prust forced him to get emergency surgery and earned Prust a two-game suspension. The Rangers forward was well enough to travel with the team to Montreal for what could be a series-deciding Game 5. New York leads the Canadiens 3-1.
