Several reports have surfaced moments ago revealing that one of the New York Rangers top prospects have surfaced a injury to the head.
As the second day of the New York Rangers Rookie Training camp was underway, prospect Adam Sykora had suffered an injury while trying to drive a puck to the net.
Adam Sıkora just took a puck or stick to the face and skated off with his head in his hands, but he's staying on the bench. I'd expect nothing less from that kid.
#NYR Adam Sykora just caught a stick in the face. He skated off holding his mouth, but he's still on the bench.
Certainly good news that the 21-year old prospect didn't need leave to ice for medical attention.
Rangers insider Colin Stephenson of Newsday.com, was able to capture a video of the incident. Here's a look:
Will Adam Sykora Make The New York Rangers Final Roster
Adam Sıkora is signed to a three-year, $2,419,998 contract with a cap hit of $806,666 per season, with the New York Rangers after being drafted back in 2022, with the 63rd overall pick, 2nd round.
However, since then he has played 139 games with the American Hockey League's, Hartford Wolf Pack and managed to put up an impressive 17 goals and 36 assists during that time. Just last season is when he posted a career high with 30 points in 71 games.
Something that i truly believe will help him secure a spot in the New York Rangers lineup, whether that begins on opening night or mid-season. One thing that is certain, the youngster has plenty of talent the organization will be looking to hold on to.
So with that being said, i don't think Sykora will secure a spot on the Rangers opening night roster, as several other prospects such as Gabe Perreault, Brennan Othmann, and Brett Berard all have a better chance at securing a spot.
