New York Rangers: Filip Chytil’s 2019-20, what to expect next year

Filip Chytil has been viewed as the future second-line center for the New York Rangers since they selected him with the No. 21 pick of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft. He’s been fairly inconsistent since making his NHL debut in March 2018, but the talent and skill are absolutely there.

Chytil, who turned 21 years old in September, was surprisingly underwhelming during training camp. As a result, the Rangers sent him down to their AHL affiliate, the Hartford Wolf Pack, to begin the season.

He was excellent in his short AHL stint, recording nine points in nine games.
