Chris Kreider set to return to Rangers' lineup
New York Rangers winger Chris Kreider will be back in the lineup on Monday after missing two games with a cut on top of his hand.
He will take the spot of Oscar Lindberg -- who will be a healthy scratch -- on third line alongside Kevin Hayes and Jesper Fast.
Kreider has six goals and 12 assists in 39 games this season. We project him to record eight more goals with 12 more assists over the Rangers' final 39 contests. His 49.3 Corsi For Percentage is his worst mark since his rookie year while his 2.5 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength is well above his career clip of 0.9.
