Chris Kreider Posts Multi-Point Effort On Tuesday
6 years agoNew York Rangers forward Chris Kreider played a major role in his team's 5-3 defeat of the Montreal Canadiens on Tuesday, contributing a goal and an assist in the victory. After battling injury issues last season, Kreider is off to a nice start to the 2018-2019 season with 11 points (seven goals, four assists) in 15 games. The 27-year-old continues to be an underappreciated fantasy asset despite providing great value in leagues that reward physical play (12 penalty minutes and 22 hits thus far). Cemented in the Rangers' top six forward group, Kreider should be far more owned than he currently is in Yahoo! leagues (53%). With a back-to-back against the Red Wings and Blue Jackets on Friday and Saturday, the power-forward should at the very least be considered an attractive stream to close out weekly matchups.
