Kreider managed an assist in Wednesday's 9-0 win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Fantasy managers were left wanting more from Krieder due to the overall scoring barrage from the Blueshirts, but the helper increased his point total to 20 on the season. Kreider owns a career-best shooting percentage (23.3), and he currently owns a 14:6 goals-to-assist ratio to stay highly relevant in most fantasy settings.

Kreider scored a goal and an assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
He also chipped in three shots, a blocked shot and a plus-3 rating. The 29-year-old has been terrorizing the league over the last 10 games, piling up nine goals and 13 points, but with Artemi Panarin now back in action, Kreider may find himself slipping back into a complementary role in the Rangers offense.

Kreider scored three goals -- one on the power play -- on five shots in Thursday's 6-1 win over New Jersey.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider continued his sizzling hot streak, recording his second natural hat trick in five games to give him nine goals in the last six games. He scored New York's first three goals of the contest, tying the game at one on the power play before giving the Rangers the lead with a deflection later in the frame and adding a cushion early in third. The veteran winger is stepping up big time with Artemi Panarin (not injury related) unavailable and Mika Zibanejad struggling.

Kreider scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 win over Buffalo.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider etched the game-winner when he beat Carter Hutton with a long shot from above the left faceoff circle, putting the Rangers up 3-1 midway through the second period. It was Kreider's team-leading 10th goal of the year and his sixth in just the last five games. He appears to be headed for a sixth 20-goal campaign in the last seven years.

Kreider scored a goal and an assist in Friday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old has stepped up while Artemi Panarin (personal) is away from the Rangers, extending his goal streak to three games and piling up five tallies and six points during that stretch. On the season, Kreider has a lopsided nine goals and 11 points through 18 contests.

Kreider tallied a hat trick, with two of his goals coming on the power play, in Wednesday's 4-3 loss to Philadelphia. He also had four shots and three hits.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider was an offensive force from the Rangers, although his three goals probably came from a combined distance of about two feet. On his first one, Kreider headed straight for the net off a power-play faceoff win and knocked home the rebound from a point shot. His second goal, which also came with the man advantage, was a backdoor tap-in at the side of the net. Kreider completed the hat trick early in the third period, jumping on a rebound off the post to draw the Rangers to within 4-3. After scoring four times in his first 15 games, Kreider has erupted for four more in his last two contests on just five shots.

Kreider scored a power-play goal on three shots Monday in a 3-1 win over Pittsburgh.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider got his stick on an Adam Fox point shot at 11:10 of the first period to break a 1-1 deadlock. It was the fourth goal of the season for Kreider and his third in the last four outings. Even in a shortened season, the 29-year-old appears to be on his way to a third straight 20-goal campaign.

Kreider scored a goal on a team-leading five shots Saturday in a 5-4 overtime loss to Pittsburgh. He added four hits and two PIM.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider swatted home a rebound off a point shot midway through the second period to knot the score at 3-3. The 29-year-old has three goals in eight games, which puts him almost exactly in line with last year's pace that allowed him to score 24 times in 63 contests. Kreider also has some utility in PIM leagues, having amassed 50 or more PIM in six of his first seven full seasons.

Kreider scored a goal on six shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Qualifiers.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider struck 12 seconds into the second period, but that was the only puck to get past James Reimer in the contest. The Rangers' loss ended their season. Kreider had 24 goals, 45 points, 156 shots and a plus-13 rating in the regular season, and another goal and assist in three games during the short playoff run. The 29-year-old winger signed a seven-year extension with the Rangers in February -- expect to see him as a fixture in the top-six for years to come.

Kreider (foot) told reporters his foot was back to normal, Mike Zeisberger of NHL.com reports, clearing the way for him to play if (once) the season resumes.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider missed six contests due to his foot injury prior to the shutdown. Before getting hurt, the winger was bogged down in a five-game pointless streak, though that didn't stop him from reaching the 20-goal and 45-point thresholds this year. While the Rangers are technically sitting outside a playoff spot right now, the 28-year-old will be ready to go if the league picks up the regular season or expands the number of teams that make the postseason. If that's the case, Kreider figures to be a top-end fantasy option in DFS contests.
