HARTFORD, February 26, 2011: New York Rangers president and general manager Glen Sather announced today that the Rangers have returned defenseman Michael Del Zotto to the AHL’s Connecticut Whale.

The Whale’s next action is this Wednesday, March 2, as they return to the XL Center to host the Springfield Falcons in a 7:00 PM game.
