On the bright side, at least Chytil might get some time in the top 6. Kid is so talented yet seems to be stuck behind Zibbby/Strome. I want to see what he can do with good, scoring wingers.

You misspelled Chytil. It's spelled Howden.

LOL!

 

[Zats Muccarello]

Praying its not a serious injury and he is ok. Looked pretty rough on the bench last night though

I'm not a Rangers fan but I've always loved watching Chytil. Here's hoping he gets the opportunity at some point this season.

This is a big year for Chytil overall. I think he makes a statement this year if he’s not traded. Howden too. I made a post about him long ago about giving up on him too early would be very foolish. Tampa had him rated highly for a reason and they were not too happy to give him up in the McDonaugh trade. He looks like night and day from this year to last. He is still very young and raw and has had basically no AHL time. He can still become a very good 3rd of 4th line center, an important piece in the years to come. Patience grasshopper

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

K-C-B was a great line.

I don't think that line gets put back together. Howden skated between Kreider and Buch during camp and I think Quinn leaves Chytil and Kakko together.

Does Barron get a few games if Zibanejad is out? Having him play his way into a top 9 role in place of PDG would be wonderful. I don't have anything against PDG, but hes just kind of there... He's like Strome with out the expectations.

Mika Zibanejad is not practicing today. Maintenance day, per the Rangers. It's the same for Brendan Lemieux.

Maintenance day apparently. Better than day-to-day I guess...

I’m being hopeful but most times guys don’t hang out on the bench after a head injury. But I guess anything is possible. He probably just banged up his shoulder or arm and was no need to risk anything by playing him the last 30 seconds or so

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Maybe it’s COVID after effects and he shit himself a-la Lamar Jackson? Or he was still replaying that missed open net in his head? Lol idk I’m just praying it’s not concussion.

The look on his face made me concerned it was a concussion.

If that was the fear, I think that he would have been in the locker room getting looked at

 

[haveandare]

Maintenance day sounds encouraging but totally shuffling the lines makes me think they’re not expecting him back next game. Usually in that case you’d just plug someone else in that spot at practice.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Reading his lips when he was talking to people...I could have sworn he said "HIP" So it might have something to do with his hip when he went into the boards. It was definitely something lower body though the way he skated to the bench.

thats better than a concussion but a hip injury is still bad news.

DQ confirmed they expect both Mika and Lemieux to play on Friday.

doubtful. I expect Rooney to get Howden's 4th line spot.
EDIT: looks like Zib isn't missing any time.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

DQ confirmed they except both Mika and Lemieux to play on Friday.

Best news I heard this week.

thank christ

Edit: where did you see this btw?

 

[1Knee1T]

It's been a while since we've had a groin concussion.

 

[Kords]

aka Day to Day for 2 weeks

 

[PuckLuck3043]

I'd be shocked if he didn't miss any time. I'm hoping for the best.
