Kreider’s Homecoming Could Shake NHL | Sports News

Chris Kreider, the Anaheim Ducks’ high-salary forward with a seven-year, $45M contract, could be headed back to Boston — and the Bruins are watching. With only $9M in cap space left, the Ducks are moving him to clear room, but Kreider’s not just any free agent: he’s got leverage, wants to play closer to home, and might refuse to report if his preferred destination isn’t on the table. At 35, Kreider still delivered 50 points (22 goals) last season — exactly the kind of firepower Boston lost in free agency. With over $5M in cap space and a roster that needs offense, the Bruins could be a perfect fit — if GM Jeremy Colliton is willing to buck his usual youth-first philosophy. This one’s worth keeping an eye on. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
