When Chris Kreider was selected by the New York Rangers with the 19th overall pick in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft, Rangers fans knew they had to wait for Kreider to develop and mature. He did so while playing hockey at Boston College before making the jump to professional hockey.
Ranger fans were content to wait on Kreider- a large power forward with terrific speed that many believed had the ability to become a game-breaking player for the Blueshirts going forward. However, it seems like waiting for Kreider has become a common trend amongst Rangers fans. Now we are once again, waiting upon management’s decision regarding the 28 year-old power forward and his future in New York.
