Chris Kreider: (Hand) Practiced Friday

NEWS UPDATE
Kreider (hand) took part in Friday's practice, The Record reports.

ROTOWIRE FANTASY ANALYSIS
Kreider donned a non-contact jersey for portions of Friday's morning skate, when his shooting reportedly appeared to be improving strength-wise. However, considering he has been sidelined since late March, Kreider will need more practice work before he can return to the Rangers' lineup.

Maybe he does get back later this series. Sounds like good progress

 

Yeah, maybe a game 6 or 7. I think that is possible. He should be back for the ECF for sure if we win this series.

 

I don't see 5 days. He needs a few practices, and then practice with contact before he can play. I will say 6 or 7. That is 9 or 11 days away.

 

I'm thinking if he's practicing now game 5 which is a week from now could be a real possibility

 

I would agree that would be best case...game 5. But barring a setback it is very likely he will be back later this series.

 

He better have been skating and riding the bike to keep his legs in shape.

Kreider was seen mostly stick handling today and showing stronger passes and more strength on his forehand. (Steve Zipay and Andrew Gross)

Alain Vigneault said that Kreider is improving but wouldn’t commit to him returning in this series. (Katie Strang)




I still feel game 6...maybe game 5 is best case.

 

seeing his teammates grind it out , knowing he could make a difference, the adrenaline flow... get him out there ASAP!

 

Kreider shooting slapshots in practice today which I think is the final test for the wrist as Duguay stated. I have a feeling kreider is suiting up for game 4

 

I'd say Game 5 at the earliest, especially if its 3-1.

 

I agree, I think we see him tomorrow night....

 

Sounds to me that if the Dr. clears him, he will be in the lineup tomorrow night.

 

According to a few twitters today, he is in for tonight. Practicing this AM in regular jersey (not no contact jersey)....

 

That would be a plus.

Kreider/Stepan/Nash
Hags/Richards/MSL
Pouliot/Brassard/MZA
Boyle/Moore/Carcillo

Not bad at all. With the way this has gone since game 1, I think the winner tonight wins the series.

 

Getting Nash back on the right side can only help. Not making an excuse for his awful play but mayble it'll give him a jump.

 

11:09AM: Kreider described his situation as day to day and wouldn’t say whether he was cleared or whether he would play tonight. (Katie Strang)

10:55AM: Kreider doesn’t appear impaired while going through drills. Larry Brooks says that he is “snapping” the puck. (Twitter)

10:24AM: Chris Kreider is on the ice in a regular jersey, not a non-contact jersey, and taking part in a full morning skate with the team for the first time since undergoing surgery on his hand. (Steve Zipay and Pat Leonard)

 

sit fast and miller bring back carcillo and insert kreider and we will score 4!

All the anger is out of me...its time to rebuild the energy and positiveness...is that a word...if not...well dam it im being positive

WE WILL WIN TONIGHT!

 

11:28AM: Kreider has been medically cleared but Alain Vigneault is unsure if he will play. (Katie Strang)
