Soucy has been in the lineup for four straight games but will be replaced by Haydn Fleury vs. the Blackhawks.

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.

Pettersson was activated from the COVID-19 protocol list for Thursday's game but he is ineligible to travel to Canada due to the Canadian government’s mandatory 14-day quarantine requirement following his previous positive tests for COVID-19.

Hronek missed Wednesday's practice and his status for Thursday's game vs. the Capitals is uncertain. Monitor his availability when the Red Wings hit the ice for warmups at 7:00 PM ET.

With Jake Neighbours being sent to the WHL on Wednesday, Joshua comes up to take his spot on the roster. Joshua has not registered a point in three games with the Blues this season but has four points (1G / 3A) in seven AHL games.

Pettersson has missed the last three games while in COVID-19 protocol but was on the ice for Wednesday's practice and will be a game-time decision on Thursday. Pettersson skated on the third pairing with Chad Ruhwedel (also a game-time decision) in the session.

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.
