I feel like he has transitioned into almost completely a net front guy and even his board work has kind of suffered these days…he’s not that active in the cycle now and seems to half heartedly skate to pucks. But he keeps putting them in the net so you do you Kreider
Player Discussion Chris Kreider
- Thread starter Krams
- Start date
There’s no reason he can’t do both.
But like you said, not doing the other stuff matters less when he’s scoring.

Kreider not caring is a weird meme that pops up on here way too often. By order of shits given, I'd consider him second only to Igor.

Went for a walk for coffee just now and was thinking about last night. Me and most of the fanbase get on this guy alot, but it really hit me how depressed i'm gonna be when he's gone. I don't think he's leaving anytime soon, but when he does i'm gonna be bummed. Hope he can get a cup in NY, he's been a good Ranger and possibly the last to wear the number 20.
He’s by far the most successful rangers forward draft pick since….Amonte? Lol
Arguably their best pick in the post lockout era outside goalies

I don’t care either way, maybe he just didn’t want it, but I feel like he does everything a captain does anyways. Feel like he speaks to the media everyday, gives real answers, seems like a guy everyone in the room likes, and is respected.
I hope the Rangers finish the job tomorrow so this series by CK isn’t forgotten.

My guess is that he's a quieter and more self-contained guy than most. Very possible that both him and ZBad just keep to themselves in the lockerroom for the most part.
Captaincy talks are always kind of moot, because as you said, none of us have the inside knowledge of how all the guys interact together. But Kreider definitely looks like the guy from our perspective.

Agreed. Despite many villainy’s getting seems to get he was/is pretty much a steal at pick 19.

Kreider has the 9th most points among players drafted in 2009. Among the 8 ahead of him, only Tyson Barrie (picked 64th) and Ryan O'Reilly (picked 33rd) were drafted after him (both by Colorado).
During the regular season, Kreider is 4th overall in goals and 2nd overall in goals per game in his draft class.
In the playoffs, Kreider is 3rd overall in both goals and goals per game in his draft class.
Kreider is 6th overall in his draft class in plus/minus at +107.
To this day, Montreal fans still cry about him crashing into Price, even though it was clearly Emelin's fault. I think the real reason for their butthurt is because they know they could have drafted Kreider, but took Louis Leblanc instead.

This guy has risen to everything asked of him over the years. Really crazy to see. By far the best homegrown skater in a long time
I think he’s been more impactful than stepan
Miller was a good pick but never reached his potential here

Kreider off to a fantastic start. Continuing where he left off from the playoffs. Still don't understand why some fans want to trade him or Laf should be on the Top line over him. Come on, meow.

Barring something catastrophic he’s going to be 3rd all time in goals for the Rangers by January.
I was rocking my Kreider jersey last night when he scored on that Mika pass, almost lost my voice from yelling so much. lol.

Kreider turning into Cam Neely post pandemic is kinda the upside we were all hoping for when he was originally drafted all those years ago. No one is gonna wear #20 for this team again

Only 3 goals from tying Bathgate for 4th overall, and 11 from catching Graves. He'll need to average 36 goals this year and next to pass Ratelle. He's still 137 goals from Gilbert.

They have Kreider at 411 for adjusted goals. I assume that means era-adjusted. That's just 11 behind Bill Cook.

That's some good company right there.

What a stud. We should have known the minute we saw the video of him jumping out of a pool and then out-benching Ronnie Coleman poolside.
