Chris Kreider Activated From Injured Reserve

Chris Kreider has been activated from injured reserve according to the NHL media site as he gears up to return on Tuesday night against the Colorado Avalanche

This comes after Kreider missed the past four games with an upper-body injury.

Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reported the belief for weeks has been that Kreider’s back has been an ongoing issue, which is what likely kept him out.

The New York Rangers also sent Bo Groulx back down to the Hartford Wolf Pack.

Kreider has recorded 13 goals, two assists and 15 points in 34 games while averaging 17:37 minutes.
