Confirmed with Link: Kreider is the NYR 2022 Masterton Nominee

[Kane One]

Looks like Kreider was nominated for the Masterton Trophy this year.

Kreider has strung together a career season at age 30 and in his 10th year in the NHL, leading the Rangers by a significant margin in goals (50 and counting). Having been a streaky scorer his entire NHL career, Kreider transformed into a consistent producer this season who is just as noticeable without the puck as he is with it. Kreider has been viewed as the Rangers captain without the ‘C.’ Instead, the Massachusetts native has been at the heart of the six-alternate-captain group. After overcoming a blood clot that led to a rib resection in 2017, Kreider has seemingly never taken another game for granted and plays as such.

Am I the only one who thinks our nominee should have been Panarin, due to the whole Putin thing earlier in the year?

Their reasoning for Kreider was his 2017 health issue, but that was 5 years ago…

It will end up being a moot point anyway since Kevin Hayes should win.

Remember when Zuccarello came back from a lobotomy and they gave the Masterton to Jagr because Jagr is old?

This but unironically

Should have nominated Laf for persevering while the Rangers are "overtly killing his career"...

Good for Kreider I guess but seems like a bit of weird nomination. Probably does show that we've had a pretty good season "off-ice" as far as issues go

You only beat Jagr if you are nominated when Jagr isnt
