Former Rangers star cracks a joke towards Kreider's 300th goal
Mats Zuccarello, the former Rangers forward who shared align with Chris kreider for many years spoke up and cracked a joke about Kreider's 300th goal that was scored during Saturday night's game against the Arizona Coyotes.
As funny as the joke was, there may be some truth to this has both linemates were quite good together when they played for the Rangers.
Zucc's has been a member of the Minnesota Wild for the last five seasons, but during his time with the Rangers he would always put up solid production especially between 2015 in 2018.
Kris Kreider on the other hand, has been a pure goal score for the Rangers over the last three years.
Coming off his season high of 50 two goals in 2021-2022 he still has put together great production with 36 goals in 2023 and 35 goals to date.
With a sound defensive play of + 21, and scoring 35 goals and 32 assists for 67 points, this bodes well for the rangers as they finish off the season in the next couple of weeks.
