Chytil, 23, will have a NY Rangers salary cap hit of $4,437,500/year that includes a $1,000,000 signing bonus when his contract kicks in this summer.

Filip Chytil was drafted 21st overall by the New York Rangers in the 1st round of the 2017 NHL entry draft. Currently over a career that spans 6 seasons, Chytil has a total 135 points in 319 games played, and 9 playoffs points in 23 games played.

The next big hurdle that GM Chris Drury has to tackle is forward Alexis Lafrenière. Will the Blue Shirts be able to re-sign him or will Lafrenière be traded?

What are Rangers fans saying about the Filip Chytil contract

Great signing by the Rangers but I see an offer sheet coming to Alexis Lafreniere in the ranger of $5M.

Chytil and Kaako have turned into possession forwards at 23 and 22. I’m pinching myself that we have an actual future, Drury is fantastic!

Overpaid. We will have no money for our other restricted free agents!
