“#Filip Chytil set for Rangers return after 14-game<\/a> absence<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Filip Chytil will return to the lineup for Tuesday\u2019s Garden match against the Sabres, after missing 14 games since suffering a broken hand in Pittsburgh on Jan. 24.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdding a guy with that type of speed and skill set certainly makes everyone better,\u201d Quinn said of the 21-year-old center. \u201cWe thought he was playing the best hockey of his career before he got hurt.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe was doing an awful lot of good things for us. It will be good to have him back in the lineup.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chytil had recorded two goals and an assist before going down following an open-ice collision with Evan Rodrigues midway through the Penguins game, the Rangers\u2019 fifth game of the season.<\/p>\n

The Czech native is slated to skate on the third unit, between Kevin Rooney on the left and Julien Gauthier on the right, against a Buffalo team coming off consecutive 3-0 shutout defeats to the Flyers. He had lined up between Alexis Lafreniere and Gauthier for the opener before moving between Phil DiGiuseppe and Kaapo Kakko for his next four games.<\/p>\n

Artemi Panarin and Kaapo Kakko remain out, so Quinn\u2019s choices are limited. Mika Zibanejad will center Chris Kreider and Pavel Buchnevich, while Alexis Lafreniere and Colin Blackwell will flank Ryan Strome on the top two units.<\/p>\n

Rooney, a natural center, has played some on the wing. He will open on Chytil\u2019s left, per Quinn. <\/p>\n

\u201cBecause of an honest effort night in and night out, [Rooney has] chipped in offensively from time to time and he\u2019s just an honest player,\u201d Quinn said.<\/p>\n
