Injury Report: Chris Kreider: Fractured Foot (Update 03/04/20: 4-6 Weeks)

[Brooklyn Rangers Fan]

Any word on a timetable for his return? It’s been a few days and they can usually predict a break once the swelling goes down...

 

[NYRangers0723]

It’s probably gonna be at least 4 weeks. Kreider is a physical freak so o have no doubt he can come back quicker than most but if I had to take a guess it would be most if not all the rest of the regular season

How is the hooking life?

Most woman are mistaking me for a homeless guy peddling for change, so not very well....

 

[Shadowtron]

Jean Ratelle in 72 loss probably cost us a Cup as he was only half force when he came back . Leetch busted ankle in 1990...Ulf in 79 broken ankle ...Leetch broken ankle getting out of taxi cab 93...LOL...Ranger luck .

Leetch breaking an ankle getting out of a cab...just doesn’t get any more hilarious than that hahahha. Smh.

It's been a pain in the ass...

DQ skirted around a time table today but Kreids is in a walking boot and did not need surgery. 4-6 weeks sounds normal. So rest of regular season even if it's the 4 week timeframe.

(Allegedly )falling into a ditch while hunting a(n allegedly) trespassing wild boar on your own (alleged) property.... is pretty close

 

[duhmetreE]

Send him to Mexico to get some Stem Cell treatment. back in 2-3 weeks.

Injury Update

Kreider: No surgery needed. In a walking boot and it will depend on how quickly he heals. The great news there is that no surgery is needed making 4 weeks a likely scenario for a return.

New York Rangers forward Chris Kreider out 4-6 weeks with foot fracture - TSN.ca

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Unless they some how find a way to sneak into the playoffs, give him the rest of the season off.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

so is it an ankle or a foot?

Dale Rolfe breaking Jean Ratelle's ankle with a shot from the point in a cup potential season seems much more Rangeresque.

 

[trueblue30nyr]

Even more Rangeresque? McD taking out Zook. I firmly believe we would've made it back to the finals if we still had him.

 

[Oscar Lindberg]

4-6 weeks is basically the rest of the season no?

No reason to have him rush back

If the Rangers are still right outside (or somehow inside) a playoff spot towards the final week of the season, we're going to see him.

Not his fault it was black ice lol. Nothing to do with drinking at all.

Not assigning blame at all, but it is easier to catch your balance sober than not.

We would’ve gotten smoked anyway.

[Machinehead]

It's very not-Rangers to tell us exactly what's hurt and exactly how long it will take. Legitimately curious why they did this.

 

[Machinehead]

Unless they some how find a way to sneak into the playoffs, give him the rest of the season off.

Even then.

Do we need Kreider out there to lose to Washington in 6?

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Even then.

Do we need Kreider out there to lose to Washington in 6?

Well with out them they lose in 4-5.

 

[Machinehead]

Well with out them they lose in 4-5.

Ok

 

[cwede]

... Do we need Kreider out there to lose to Washington in 6?

open mind for fun - Flyers get to 1st, Wash plays Pitt
But if NYR make it, most likely would be as 2d WC,
so I believe they would play BOS no matter who the other WC is ...
wouldn't get to knock out AV until ECF...

Rangers got shutout in Games 5 and 7. I figured he would've provided at least some offense as opposed to no offense at all. Hank kept us in long enough for us to win that game. The Bolts didn't score until like half-way through the third period in Game 7. That game was winnable. D or no D.
