That move by Kurovsky there was something else.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Any points?

I don't think so

 

[bl02]

Any points?

two I believe goal and assist

 

[Griffinbw]

Any points?

On that one? No. But he’s got a goal and assist today

 

[bl02]

I don't think so

he has a goal he followed up on a rebound in front of the net and an assist by driving to the net and teammate put puck past russian goalie. Doing all this with a messed up nose

 

[nyr2k2]

Yeah there was only one assist given on that fifth goal and it wasn't to him. It was a great shift by the entire line though, including Chytil. It's funny because while he's so young, he looks like a man playing against boys at times.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

I meant on that particular goal. So I guess, no.

Right, I wasn't sure if he was asking if he had a point on that last goal or not, my mistake

 

[Trxjw]

For me the thing that has really stood out over the last few months of seeing Chytil is how he can explode away from the boards with the puck. He can win those battles, create separation, and generate opportunities. He looks like Scheifele at the same age.

my bad. No not on that one

 

[Irishguy42]

All of the top players for CZE are,on fire today.

 

[FireGerardGallant]

Why is this Sweden game only on TSN's Stupid app

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Should have used Chytil on the draw toward the end, it seemed like he won everyone he took.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

That would be fake news. Chytil was player of the game.

 

[Fvital92]

Well, Andersson better play good after this performance by Chytil.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Andersson just missed a tap in to an empty net from the side of the net.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Andersson looks okay so far. Sweden overall has been underwhelming.

 

[Griffinbw]

Andersson just missed a tap in to an empty net from the side of the net.

Like a true ranger

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Like a true ranger

Someone has to take over for Nash when he leaves.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

 

[Ainec]

Matthews is the best comparison for Chytil

I also want to say Jamie Benn but that's a lazy one

 

[Fitzy]

Reminds me of Hertl, personally, but that may in part be the name, nationality, size, and immediacy of impact rather than actual play style.

 

[GeorgeKaplan]

Matthews is the best comparison for Chytil

Rangers twitter account posted a 4 minutes interview with him this morning where he was saying Matthews is his favorite player and the guy he tries to model his game after

Yup, I saw that awhile back but never gave much thought to it.

Chytil also compared himself with Galchenyuk I believe.. There were also Kadri and Couturier comparisons thrown out there.

I like Matthews one the best because of their ability to stickhandle, skate, and lower body strength. I think Matthews has been compared to Benn by his Swiss/NHL coach Crawford

 

[Wooren]

At one point Chytil managed to maintain the puck possession for like 15 seconds despite being between two Russian players who obviously wanted to strip the puck off him. That was very impressive IMO. Might have been shortly before the Czech 5th goal, but not sure.
