The New York Rangers' Filip Chytil is in quite the conundrum, as he's once again out of the lineup for a 2nd year.This time, it's another upper-body injury and while there have been no details released about it, but we can speculate.
If the injury is as problematic as we think, i.e. a concussion there needs to be serious discussion about his future with the Rangers.
A quality-of-life decision is likely what's next for Chytil.
Chytil's injury is serious enough that he won't be traveling with the Rangers either, according to Yahoo Sports.

Chytil's injury occurred during the game Saturday against the San Jose Sharks, where he and teammate K'Andre Miller collided on the ice.
In order for Chytil to get an idea of where his health stands he needs to truly pause and consider where his next steps take him.
This could mean hanging up the skates and foregoing his career with the New York Rangers.
Chytil has played only 15 games this season, and posted 9 points( 4 G, 5 A), and was a driver of the Rangers stunted offense.
It'll be detrimental to the Rangers if they lose Filip Chytil for good, but it'll be more so if Chytil loses a living standard he returned to previously if he continues to accumulate concussions.
