Things change, but Chris is a valued member of the New York Rangers and I look forward to him having a great camp and a great run with us."He's got one year left, and that should be a whole lot of importance to him to come in and have a great camp and a great year, and we'll just see where it all goes."Kreider, who can become an unrestricted free agent July 1, 2020, tied his NHL career high with 28 goals last season, and his 52 points were one fewer than his best.The 28-year-old has been the subject of trade speculation throughout the offseason, particularly after the Rangers signed left wing Artemi Panarin to a seven-year, $81.5 million contract July 1 ($11.6 million average annual value).
