A person with knowledge of the situation says New York Rangers forward Filip Chytil does not have a concussion and is expected to rejoin the team in Calgary. The person tells The Associated Press that Chytil saw a specialist and is considered day to day with an upper-body injury. That means the 25-year-old Czech center may not play immediately. Chytil was injured last week in a game against San Jose. There’s concern about his health because of Chytil’s concussion history. He missed 72 of 82 regular-season games last year because of one.
