The New York Rangers aren't taking any chances ahead of Monday's trade deadline.

Kevin Hayes, Mats Zuccarello, and Adam McQuaid were all scratched from Saturday's matinee against the New Jersey Devils.

All three players are pending unrestricted free agents and are widely expected to be traded by the rebuilding Rangers.

Hayes ranks third on the club in both goals (14) and points (42) through 51 games. He carries a $5.175-million cap hit, according to CapFriendly.

Zuccarello, who's posted 37 points in 46 contests, is on the books for $4.5 million.

McQuaid's deal carries a cap hit of $2.75 million. New York acquired 32-year-old defenseman from the Boston Bruins in September.
