Je ne sais pas pourquoi ce sous-marin perd la tête chaque fois que je critique Kreider. J’ai littéralement eu un post où j’ai dit que chaque joueur portant un A, et Troubas C devrait être arnaqué. Et j’attends ça. Il n’y a pas de leader dans cette équipe. Je pensais que Trouba était peut-être tout au long de l’année, mais il m’a prouvé TELLEMENT tort en séries éliminatoires avec son jeu pathétique. Tous ceux qui ne s’appellent pas Igor Shesterkin devraient avoir honte de la façon dont ils ont joué en séries éliminatoires. La Caroline vient de montrer à quel point nous étions pathétiques. J’ai appelé tellement de joueurs mais vous avez tous perdu la tête quand j’ai dit que Kreider m’avait déçu dans le match 7. Il l’a fait. Mais pourquoi vous fâchez-vous tous à la moindre critique de lui ? Est-il votre joueur préféré ? Est-ce parce qu’il est ici depuis plus de 10 ans ? Est-ce parce qu’il est juste un gars sympathique? Quel est le problème? Dans quelle mesure l’un d’entre vous est-il satisfait de la façon dont il a joué dans le match 7 ? Je suis tellement serieux. J’ai déchiré plus sur Panarin que Kreider. Kreider n’était pas notre pire joueur, mais il n’était pas bon quand il le fallait. Je m’attends à ce que les joueurs vedettes se présentent quand cela compte. Il ne l’a pas fait, je suis désolé de le dire à tout le monde, mais il ne l’a pas fait. Il n’était pas le seul mais il n’est pas exempt de critiques à cause des deux premiers matchs

Chris Kreider is a Rangers legend happening before our eyes and we should all be thankful he loves this team.
Players like Chris Kreider don’t grow on trees, especially for 6.5mil AAV
Nobody’s happy with the way he played in game 7. He’s not the focus of the criticism because he scored 6 goals, more than the rest of the pathetic top 6 combined. There’s plenty of players to call out in this series, Chris Kreider really isn’t one of them.
He’s the only reason they even made it to game 7…game 6 was all him. Nobody is saying he was good in game 7 but he’s the only non-Igor that played well imo
My captain
This is some main character syndrome shit
Carolina literally played exactly the way the Rangers did in Game 1 of our series. I think perhaps you need to look in the mirror and calm down.
Not many are going to escape criticism over this series, and Kreider will get his fair share of the blame. But on the totem pole of « who needed to show up and didn’t » Kreider is actually kind of low on the list.
He’s not a star player. I think we all know his 50 goal season was a fluke. Special for sure but a once in a career thing. The reality is that he’s a very specialized tool. A rare combination of speed and size that can create problems on a breakaway or be a blocking/redirecting force on the powerplay. But thats really all he is.
Is his 6.5 million a lot for someone who does what he does? Maybe. Would trading him have been the more logical move to do back in the Winter of 2020? Probably. Will we begin to feel the effect of his contract? I think we’re already there. But in a 7 game series, for 3 games he did his job, and thats a lot more than I can say for a few guys who are getting paid quite a bit more.
You can defend your comments all you want, I guess your entitled to your own shitty opinion about him not deserving to be wearing a letter.
Kreider 2024
The only player that should be immune from criticism after that series is igor. Krieder showed up more than most other players, but he also disappeared with the rest of the team in the losses. Him and trouba are our veteran leaders who should set the tone and both have in the past (see ipad smash and helmet toss) so it feels weird that neither was able to when we were so clearly on the back foot. I’m guessing something happened behind closed doors.
That being said, if you’re looking for someone to blame for the loss based on play, he’s pretty far down the list. Right now you wouldn’t dream of trading his contract.
Who are you?
OP seems like an incel
Elite power play and net front guy, great clutch performer… but also basically completely invisible outside of those areas far too often. That will be the story of his career. He always leaves you wanting more. We’ve been over this a thousand times in here.
If you were to re-shape the core, he and Panarin would be the guys you look to move if you could, whether the fans like it or not.
“You’ve unlocked *Kreider Yell*— you are now defeated. Sit down.”
Kreider is amongst the best ever at deflection and tip in goals.
That being said, this past season he was terrible at most other things. He rarely makes the correct pass and usually is just able to continue a cycle at best. Most of the times he kills possession.
He still performs a much needed and not easily replaced job which is controlling the front of the opponent’s net. But I do not like that his main and only contribution relies on someone else to facilitate it. He does not create on his own.
i kind of agree with you. even with his ‘good’ games he’s invisible until he scores.
scoring on the powerplay is great but 5 on 5 play is where you win games and he’s mediocre 5 on 5 in my opinion. just look at edmonton… they got outplayed hard by vegas but two powerplay goals kept them on…
point is tough to win a stanley cup with a niche powerplay one trick goal scorer.
