The Canucks have been quiet on Pettersson's injury but head coach Travis Green said he expects the star centre to miss at least another week with an upper-body injury. Expect another update on his status early next week.

DeBrusk has struggled this season, scoring just one goal in 17 games. Head coach Bruce Cassidy said that they're not getting the effort they need out of DeBrusk, so Jack Studnicka will move up to the second line to replace him vs. the Islanders.

Pettersson will miss his third straight game with an upper-body injury, leaving JT Miller to play centre on the second line. Pettersson remains day-to-day.










Garland missed Saturday's game vs. the Avalanche but is expected to play tonight vs. the Kings. It's unclear who he will skate with but he played with Christian Dvorak and Phil Kessel in his most recent game.

Chytil will play for the first time since January 24th and will skate on the third line with Kevin Rooney and Julien Gauthier. Chill scored two goals with one assist while playing 12:56 ATOI in five games this season.

Chytil has been out since January 24th but skated on the third line in Monday's practice, suggesting that he'll be back Tuesday vs. Sabres. Chytil had a nice start to the season, scoring two goals with one assist in five games, so his return is crucial for the Rangers' bottom-6 to have success.
