Sykora will not return to Monday's preseason game versus the Devils due to a lower-body injury.
Sykora managed just 2:49 of ice time in the first period before not coming out of the locker room for the start of the second. Considering Sykora was ruled out of this game rather quickly, it seems unlikely that he'll suit up in the second half of the Rangers' back-to-back against the Islanders on Tuesday.
