InjuryInjury
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.

Elias Pettersson(C)|VAN
InjuryInjury
The Canucks added Elias Pettersson to the COVID-19 protocol list.

The Canucks don't play until Saturday against the Senators but that game could end up getting postponed given the breakout in Ottawa's dressing room. If it doesn't, Pettersson will likely only miss one game.
