Kreider returns to lineup, hopes Rangers can continue strong play
by from on (#20198)
The New York Rangers are set to welcome Chris Kreider back to the lineup after the winger missed four games due to neck spasms.
The club went 3-1 in his absence and finished October as the second-highest scoring team in the NHL, giving Kreider a specific goal upon hitting the ice.
Kreider: "[Team is] playing the way we way we want to play. That's what matters - and I'll try to come in and not screw that up." #NYR

Kreider was off to a fine start prior to the injury, recording three goals and four assists in seven games.
He's expected to back back on a line with Mika Zibanejad and Mats Zuccarello in Tuesday's game against St. Louis.
