The Ducks need a healthier, rejuvenated version of Kreider to make this trade worth it. The biggest area where Kreider could help the Ducks is on the power play. Kreider has long been an elite net-front power-play scorer, and the Ducks’ man advantage could certainly use a boost after ranking 32nd in the NHL this season.

Veteran winger Chris Kreider is heading to the Anaheim Ducks as part of a trade from the New York Rangers. The teams completed the deal Thursday. The Rangers are getting center prospect Carey Terrance and a third-round pick from the Ducks for Kreider and a fourth-round pick, plus the salary cap space they can use this summer.
