"Chmelar, the Rangers 5th round pick in 2021, has very quietly become a steady prospect for the Rangers. His 2-3-5 in 9 games this year doesn't light the world on fire, but he's been great for the Pack and has a nice edge to his game. The 6'5″, 220 lb winger will probably slide into a third line role, assuming he plays, to help give that line a little more scoring bite to it."
"To make room for Chmelar, the Rangers returned Brennan Othmann to the AHL. Othmann played one game with the Rangers in Calgary before being scratched for the remainder of the road trip. The whole team looked bad in Calgary, so it's tough to simply say Othmann looked bad, but it was on top of his rough preseason as well."
Jaroslav Chmelar was recalled from the Hartford Wolf Pack to the New York Rangers. Chmelar, the Rangers' 2021 fifth-round pick, has developed into a steady prospect with size and an edge to his play. He has 2 goals and 3 assists for 5 points in nine AHL games this season and has performed well for the Wolf Pack. The 6'5″, 220 lb winger is expected to fit a third-line role to add scoring bite. To create the roster spot, Brennan Othmann was returned to the AHL after one NHL game and a difficult preseason.
