Kreider (upper body) isn't expected to play Monday versus Columbus, per Mollie Walker of the New York Post.
EDGE Analysis
Kreider missed the Rangers' last two contests. He has 19 goals and 30 points in 42 games this season. Kreider is "real close" to returning, Rangers coach Gerard Gallant told Mollie Walker of the New York Post, so maybe Kreider will return Thursday against Boston.
