Chris Kreider doesn’t want to talk about his stunning Rangers scratch — but he’s ready to move on
NY Post
Chris Kreider said he was ready to “take the lessons” from his healthy scratch last Monday’s game against the Devils and move on now that the Rangers and the rest of the NHL have returned from the holiday break.
What exactly were those lessons?
Kreider didn’t particularly care to reveal them when he spoke with reporters after the Blueshirts practiced in Greenburgh.
“I don’t see a ton of use in talking about the experience,” Kreider said. “Take the lessons, improve, be better and be the best version of myself so I can help the team.”
Kreider spent Friday’s practice skating on the wing of Mika Zibanejad and Reilly Smith and head coach Peter Laviolette described it as a “good practice” for the longest-tenured Ranger on the current roster.
The decision to scratch Kreider came as a shock to observers of the Rangers, who looked to go into the holiday break with a win.
