PITTSBURGH, PA - JANUARY 24: New York Rangers Right Wing Kaapo Kakko (24) looks on during the second period in the NHL game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the New York Rangers on January 24, 2021, at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, PA.

The New York Rangers placed forward Kaapo Kakko on the COVID-19 list Monday, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.

Kakko's Type 1 diabetes could make him more prone to complications if he contracted COVID-19, but Rangers general manager Jeff Gorton said the 19-year-old is "fine," according to The Athletic's Rick Carpiniello.

Being on the COVID-19 list doesn't necessarily mean a player has the virus.

The 2019 second overall pick has tallied two goals and no assists in eight games this season.
