Chytil placed on IR, and they recalled Jacob Quillan from Abbotsford.
They need to play him 56 games in the NHL this season to maintain his RFA status.
He’ll be interesting to watch. He likely plays a similar game as Chytil with good speed, but maybe limited scoring at the NHL level.
He is also a lot less likely to end up on IR.
Nice that he may get to play against Toronto who just traded him away for Raty.

I wish the best for Chytil but I really think Van tells him, “just go on LTIR and we will let you go to UFA after this season.”
I know that is not great asset management but you got to think his brain is almost fried. They need to tell him that he probably should retire for his own health.
I honestly don’t think Chytle brings much to the table. Sure he has speed and can dangle but he is a predictable shooter first guy with serious injury concerns. This latest is not concussion related right. Wasn’t his last injury shoulder related?
I feel for the guy but he is better off going back to Europe and playing. I can’t see him getting beyond a one year league minimum how me deal, at best, if that.
If we have to play Quinlan 50 plus games to retain his rights then we should do that.
