There is, justifiably, a lot of excitement surrounding Filip Chytil. The-18 year-old center has been a hot topic around the New York Rangers this offseason. There is a lot of hype about what he can do.
As previously stated, a lot of this excitement is justified. Chytil is a dynamic, game-breaking player that has the potential to be an elite center in the NHL.
After a season where he tore up the AHL as an 18 year old, as well as looking good in his brief call up with the Rangers, the expectations are high.
After surprisingly making the team out of camp last year, Chytil was on the opening night roster as the second line center.
