Chytil is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Chytil played just 4:08 TOI on Saturday before leaving the game with a lower-body injury and not returning. The rangers did not provide much of an update on Chytils' status but called him "day-to-day," which makes him questionable for Monday's game vs. the Kings.

Rust was activated from COVID-19 protocol but will be a game-time decision on Monday.

Rust missed the last four games while in COVID-19 protocol but may play Monday in Vegas. Rust was one of the hottest players in the NHL before landing in protocol, scoring goals in four straight games, totalling 12 points (8G / 4A) in that span.

Bryan Rust
The Penguins have placed Bryan Rust in COVID-19 protocol.

This is terrible timing for Rust, who has been one of the hottest players in the NHL recently, scoring eight goals with four assists (12 points) in his last four games. Jeff Carter will replace him in the lineup and Evan Rodrigues may replace him on the top line.

Rust is week-to-week with a lower-body injury.

Rust was moved to IR on Sunday and the Penguins announced that he will miss at least a couple of weeks on Monday. Injuries have been a major issue for Rustin his career, only playing a full schedule on 2020-21. With Rust out, Evan Rodrigues will remain on the top line and top power-play unit on Monday.

Chytil (undisclosed) is questionable for Monday's game vs. Florida.

Chytil exited Saturday's game in Calgary after his first shift and did not return. Head coach Gerard Gallant did not have an update on Chytil's status post-game, so his availability for Monday's game remains in question. Julien Gauthier, who is currently the only reserve forward on the Rangers' roster, will likely replace Chytil if he can't play.
