Filip Chytil News




Chytil was hurt last Thursday against the Islanders and missed Saturday's game in Boston. However, he was on the ice for Monday's practice and will be a game-time decision on Tuesday, so there's a good chance he's back in the lineup vs. the Hurricanes.

Chytil suffered an upper-body injury against the Islanders on Thursday and is not expected to play Saturday in Boston. With both Chytil and Andrew Copp (lower-body) not likely to be available, look for two of Jonny Brodzinski, Greg McKegg and/or Julien Gauthier to draw into the lineup.


Chytil has been out of the lineup for the last three games but will play Wednesday vs. the Blues. Chytil has had a very quiet season offensively, scoring just five goals with seven assists (12 points) in 41 games.




Chytil is day-to-day with a lower-body injury and will not play on Monday. Expect Morgan Barron to draw into the lineup to replace the third liner.

Chytil played just 4:08 TOI on Saturday before leaving the game with a lower-body injury and not returning. The rangers did not provide much of an update on Chytils' status but called him "day-to-day," which makes him questionable for Monday's game vs. the Kings.

Chytil has missed the last two games with an upper-body injury but will likely return to the lineup vs. New Jersey. Chytil will replace Sammy Blais, who is expected to miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL.

Chytil will miss his second straight game with an upper-body injury. The Rangers have been tight-lipped about how long Chytil will be sidelined but he remains on the active roster, which suggests he could play Sunday vs. the Devils.

Chytil was hurt in his first shift on Saturday and will not play Monday vs. the Panthers. With Chytil out, Kevin Rooney will likely serve as the Rangers' No.3 centre.

Chytil exited Saturday's game in Calgary after his first shift and did not return. Head coach Gerard Gallant did not have an update on Chytil's status post-game, so his availability for Monday's game remains in question. Julien Gauthier, who is currently the only reserve forward on the Rangers' roster, will likely replace Chytil if he can't play.


Chytil will play for the first time since January 24th and will skate on the third line with Kevin Rooney and Julien Gauthier. Chill scored two goals with one assist while playing 12:56 ATOI in five games this season.

Chytil has been out since January 24th but skated on the third line in Monday's practice, suggesting that he'll be back Tuesday vs. Sabres. Chytil had a nice start to the season, scoring two goals with one assist in five games, so his return is crucial for the Rangers' bottom-6 to have success.

This isn’t overly surprising, since Chytil just returned to practice on Thursday. Monitor his status heading into Sunday’s game vs. the Bruins.

Chytil has been out since January 24th due to an upper-body injury, but was back on the ice for Thursday’s practice, suggesting that he could be back soon. Don’t expect to see him Friday vs. the Bruins but maybe Sunday.
