In case you missed it last night, Ranger prospect Chris Kreider, who the club selected in the first round last year made Sports Center. His highlight reel goal was the No.1 play in BC’s 4-3 win over BU in the Bean Pot final. A rarity for hockey. Well deserved for the kid who impressed scoring six goals in helping Team USA win the WJC alongside NYR prospects Derek Stepan and Ryan Bourque.

Only a freshman, Kreider has picked it up lately scoring five goals over the past five games. Indeed, the center/left wing with blazing speed, a great shot and good size is someone for Ranger fans to get excited about. He’s carried over some of the fine play we saw with Team USA. Nice to see.
