Chytil Suffers Setback in Recovery
Filip Chytil has suffered a setback in his recovery from an upper-body injury, Dan Rosen of NHL.com. Chytil is being regularly evaluated, and there is no current timetable for his return. Chytil hasn’t been in the lineup since Nov. 2. He has no goals and six assists in 10 contests in 2023-24. When Chytil’s healthy, he will likely serve in a middle-six capacity.
Korpisalo Suffers Tough-Luck OT Loss
Joonas Korpisalo made 20 saves in a 3-2 overtime loss to Boston on Thursday. He hasn’t lost in regulation in five games (3-0-2). Korpisalo may be turning the corner on a poor season up to this point. He went 1-9-1 in 10 games prior to this solid run. But don’t overrate his three recent wins — two came against Montreal and the other was against San Jose. Those two teams certainly aren’t offensive juggernauts.
