Vitali Kravtsov’s KHL season ended on March 11, and shortly after that he made the journey to New York, quarantined, and ultimately cleared the COVID-19 intake protocol.
Vitali Kravtsov has cleared COVID-19 protocol and is skating with the #NYR extras today, while the team regulars have the day off.

Today’s April 1st, and Kravtsov won’t be in the lineup tonight, barring an unforeseen event which knocks a regular out of the lineup. The Rangers’ No. 9 pick from the 2018 draft has participated in two practices, but the team isn’t rushing to get him into the lineup.
