Rumour: During the Headlines segment on Hockey Night in Canada, Elliotte Friedman said that teams are waiting to see if forward Chris Kreider<\/a><\/strong> will be made available. Friedman added there are plenty of teams that want the services of the veteran forward.<\/em><\/p>\n

From Colorado to Boston to St. Louis to Pittsburgh, several contenders are showing interest in the availability of Chris Kreider.<\/p>\n

For now, though, it seems the @NYRangers<\/a> are still working to determine if they can retain the pending free agent.https:\/\/t.co\/eDe1Gd47Hf<\/a><\/p>\n
