The Rangers returned to full strength in Saturday’s 4-3 win. Filip Chytil played for the first time since colliding with K’Andre Miller on Nov. 14.
The Czech center, who was cleared of a concussion by specialists in New York, missed seven straight games with an unidentified upper-body injury.“It’s not easy when you’re feeling good out there and then you miss two weeks and you have to jump back,” the 25-year-old said after the game. “But I think every shift I was feeling better. Now, just need to keep going like that. I want to be healthy for the rest of the season.
Additionally, Chris Kreider played his first game since the Rangers’ four-game road trip, after dealing with back spasms.With the returns of Chytil and Kreider, Reilly Smith and Jonny Brodzinski were bumped from the lineup. Laviolette crafted a new top line with Chytil centering Artemi Panarin and Will Cuylle, while Alexis Lafreniere skated on the right wing of Brett Berard and Vincent Trocheck.
