Rangers' Filip Chytil: Ready to go
Filip Chytil has no limitations ahead of training camp, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports Tuesday.Chytil experienced an injury-plagued season in 2023-24 -- he only skated in 10 regular-season contests with the New York Rangers. The 25-year-old returned during the postseason, but he was held off the scoresheet in six contests. Chytil will likely slot in on the third line while receiving work on the second power-play unit in 2024-25. The left-shot center has amassed 144 points in 337 career regular-season appearances.

Rangers' Filip Chytil: Status uncertain
Filip Chytil (illness) remains questionable to face Carolina in Game 5 on Monday after head coach Peter Laviolette told reporters, "He practiced this morning. That's a real positive thing for our team. I'm going to keep any lineup decisions that I make to myself," per Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today.The fact that Chytil didn't take part in line rushes would certainly indicate that he won't be in action Monday but fantasy managers will have to wait until closer to puck drop for official confirmation on the center's status. If he were to be cleared to play, Chytil would likely knock Jonny Brodzinski from the lineup while filling a bottom-six role.
