Filip Chytil Shipped To Vancouver
2 months agoAccording to Frank Seravalli of DailyFaceoff.com, the Vancouver Canucks are acquiring center Filip Chytil from the New York Rangers in return for J.T. Miller. In this trade, the Canucks also acquired Victor Mancini and a 2025 conditional first-round selection. In addition to Miller, the Canucks also shipped Erik Brannstrom and Jackson Dorrington to New York. Chytil has spent his entire NHL career with the Rangers after being selected with the 21st overall pick in the 2017 NHL Draft. In 2022, Chytil tallied a career-high 45 points (22 goals, 23 helpers) across 74 games. However, the 25-year-old has struggled to stay on the ice as he has battled numerous injuries. This season, Chytil has scored 11 goals with nine assists across 41 games. He will likely spend time on the third line with his new club and will only have value in deeper formats.

Filip Chytil Will Not Play Thursday
3 months agoNew York Rangers center Filip Chytil (upper body) will not suit up for Thursday's clash against New Jersey. He left Tuesday's games against Boston with an upper-body injury and hasn't been able to practice. The injury-prone forward has contributed 10 goals and seven assists in 33 appearances this term. As a result of Chytil's injury, Arthur Kaliyev will come into the lineup for his Rangers debut on the third line. The 23-year-old, who was claimed off waivers on Jan. 6, has posted 71 points (35 goals, 36 assists) in 188 career appearances. Playing in Los Angeles, Kaliyev has shown that he can make an impact in limited minutes, but how well he adjusts to his new surroundings remains to be seen.

Filip Chytil Exits On Tuesday With Upper-Body Injury
3 months agoAccording to Peter Baugh of The Athletic, New York Rangers center Filip Chytil (upper body) exited Tuesday's game early with an injury. The 25-year-old did not play during the entire third period. Fantasy managers should monitor his status leading up to their next match on Tuesday evening, as Chytil has sustained several upper body injuries throughout his career. Earlier this season, he sustained one in November and missed seven games, and was placed on long-term injured reserve last season with a similar upper body injury. Chytil has begun to heat up offensively as he carried a four-game point streak into Tuesday's contest. If he were to miss time, Sam Carrick is a candidate to move up to the third line center role.

Filip Chytil Scores Twice On Sunday
3 months agoNew York Rangers center Filip Chytil scored twice in their victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Sunday afternoon. Chytil scored his first of the afternoon in the opening minutes of the second frame on a wrist shot. Later in the third period, he would score on a deflection to seal the victory for the Rangers. This game extended his current point streak to four games. Over this stretch, he has scored four goals with one helper and averaged a solid 3.75 shots on goal per game. Overall, the 25-year-old has tallied 17 points (ten goals, seven assists) across 32 total games this season. If Chytil continues this hot stretch, he could earn himself a role in the New York top-6 which would significantly improve his fantasy value, as he currently plays in a bottom-6 role.
