3 years agoNew York Rangers forward Ryan Strome will be sidelined for Saturday's meeting with the Canadiens after he was added to the COVID-19 list. The 28-year-old is also set to miss Monday's clash with Toronto. His absence will give a big opportunity to Filip Chytil, who gets a chance to skate as the second-line center alongside Artemi Panarin and Kaapo Kakko. The latter will take Strome's spot on the first power-play unit. Sammy Blais, who missed Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to Dallas with a lower-body injury, will draw into the lineup. Igor Shesterkin, who recorded 23 saves in his season debut against the Stars, starts between the pipes.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
