Injury Report Adam Fox Out Likely 2–4 Weeks With Lower-body Injury; Placed on LTIR

[Phil]

Quote

The Rangers had no updates on either player on Friday but league sources indicated that Fox’s lower-body injury is likely to keep him out in the range of 2-4 weeks. His leg-on-leg collision with the Hurricanes’ Sebastian Aho in the first period on Thursday looked ugly. Fox was on the ice for a few seconds, got up to ask referee TJ Luxmore why Aho wasn’t penalized for making contact well away from the puck and ended up leaving the bench soon after.

Chytil’s upper-body issue is believed to be a head injury and, as is typical for those, there’s no known timetable for his return. Chytil has suffered at least four concussions since he joined the Rangers in 2017, including one last October that kept him out for six games. He took a hard, clean, open-ice hit from Jesper Fast in the first period on Thursday, played a few shifts after but left in the second.

Oh boy Fox out for 2-4 weeks. Sucks. Chytil we knew was made outta glass but fifth concussion ain’t sound too promising. 

[RangersIn7]

Hopefully Chytil’s thing isn’t too serious. 
 

Few weeks to a month for Fox isn’t awful

[RichieNextel305]

Fox seems like a resilient guy, and he was able to skate it off. Unlike many other times with injuries to other players, I would tend to lean on the lower end of that time table.

 

Chytil, I mean it sucks. Four concussions already is really not good. He’s still young and those piling up is really not a good sign.

It’s never a good thing and if you have one it’s easier to the next one.

 

But we have seen guys get a bunch in a short span and not get another for a long while

Not if it's two weeks. That's basically four games. They'll weather it just fine. Losing Chytil will probably hurt more.

[Sharpshooter]

The hit didn't even look that bad and he got a concussion from it. Not good. All these concussions now. Not good. I think that's the best possible news about Fox. If it's 2-3 weeks it's not bad considering one of those weeks they're really not even playing.

Chytil’s thing may not be that bad.

Obviously they don’t place a time table on that, but it didn’t seem that bad and it was not a blow to the head.

 

May only be a couple of games.

 

We will see. 

[Sharpshooter]

I really hope it isn't a concussion. Maybe a shoulder issue?

Chytil's "thing" is a head injury. His fifth. He's 24-years old. Forgive me for not seeing much of a silver lining here.

Shoulder is part of the head now?

Copium.

[BrooksBurner]

That is not good for Chytil. That wasn't a big collision to have head issues from. They should LTIR him for a few months so they can sign someone. Toews?

[Phil]

 

[RichieNextel305]

Fox is on LTIR. Igor out tomorrow. Domingue called up. Quick starts. Chytil on regular IR.

 

OH BOY.

 

 

[Sharpshooter]

Things have escalated.

[RichieNextel305]

For those of you who want to know about LTIR: Minimum 10 games missed and 24 days missed.

[RichieNextel305]

Goodrow also put tomorrow on paternity leave.

LeGreca just said on YES Fox has been placed on Long Term IR with a signficant injury and will miss a significant period of time. Backing up what Phil posted.

 

Chytil 7-10 days to start.

 

They also brought a goalie up because Shesty maybe banged up some too. 

 

He sounds more than a little concerned all around.

Good thing we have the best player in the league Artemi panarin on our team

[Sharpshooter]

It makes the great road trip and start to the season even bigger. Always good to stockpile points early because injuries usually happen and these are some big ones.

[Sharpshooter]

We'll sign Toews and bring back Kane for a 2010s Chicago Blackhawks reunion tour.

[Valriera]

Theoretically, this situation is why you pay someone like goodrow so much.

Panarin-Toews-Kane line incoming.

 

@Pete is creaming in his drawers just thinking about it

I’m not looking for a silver lining. Just hoping it’s not too serious.

There are degrees of them you know.
