Rangers still uncertain when Filip Chytil will return after missing seventh straight game
NY Post
PHILADELPHIA — As sands through the hourglass, Filp Chytil remains “day to day but not today,” according to head coach Peter Laviolette’s briefing before the Rangers were beaten by the Flyers 3-1, here Friday afternoon.
The oft-injured 25-year-old center missed his seventh straight game after suffering an unidentified upper-body injury in colliding with K’Andre Miller during the second period of the Blueshirts’ 3-2 victory over the Sharks at the Garden on Nov. 14.
Chytil rejoined the team in Calgary last week after having been cleared of a concussion by a phalanx of specialists, but while he has skated regularly, No. 72 has not yet taken contact in a full practice.
Laviolette, circumspect per organization policy, would not reveal whether Chytil—who was centering Will Cuylle and Kaapo Kakko on the team’s best line before he went down—was operating under restrictions.
“He’s been skating. He skated today,” said the coach, whose team was attempting to break a four-game regulation losing streak. “Right now, he’s day to day, and we haven’t really practiced.”
Kakko was set to center the third line for the third straight game between Adam Edstrom and Reilly Smith. The makeshift unit with Kakko playing the middle for the first time in his six-year NHL career has held its own in the previous two matches, on for one goal for and one goal against with a 47.06 expected goal share.
