On what could have been a very busy day for the Rangers, they only made two moves, but boy were they big moves. First the Rangers announced a contract extension for Chris Kreider to the tune of seven years and $6.5 million. This will keep Kreider on Broadway until he is 35 years old.
Kreider was the big fish on the market, and he stayed put. Details of the contract are still unknown, but it has been speculated that a lot of the deal is in signing bonuses, which makes him a little more tradeable towards the end of the deal.
