New York Rangers right wing Blake Wheeler was back in action in Game 4 against Florida on Tuesday, logging 9:18 of ice time in his first game since Feb. 15. Wheeler replaced Filip Chytil in the lineup after missing over three months with a lower-body injury. He skated on the fourth line, with Jack Roslovic taking Chytil's spot on the top trio. The veteran recorded two blocks, four hits, and two penalty minutes in the contest. Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette suggested Chytil was kept out of the game for load management purposes, so it remains to be seen whether Wheeler can stick in the lineup. But it was great to see him back on Tuesday.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
