RANGERS TEAM NEWS CENTER

Chris Kreider - F

New York Rangers

Chris Kreider has recovered from the foot injury he was dealing with during the season.

Added Apr 20 7:48 pm (EST)

Kreider last played on Feb. 28, but it sounds like he's ready to go if the NHL season resumes. "My foot feels good," Kreider said. "[My] foot was better a few weeks ago. I'm able to work on rehabbing it and getting it back to where it was now." The Rangers forward signed a huge extension with the team earlier this year. He's going to be part of this Rangers team for a long time.

T. Bjornfot - D

LA

It has been a relatively slow start for Tobias Bjornfot in his short stint with Djurgardens of the Swedish Hockey League.

Bjornfot, 19, was Los Angeles' first round pick (22nd overall) in 2019. He appeared in three games with the Kings last season, going pointless before finishing the season in the AHL with six goals and 19 points in 44 games. The Kings sent him to Sweden on loan where he has a goal and three points in 11 games. The young blueliner is expected to compete with Kale Clague for third pairing duties on the Kings' roster this upcoming season. There's offensive upside but Bjornfot is not ready to make the leap to your fantasy lineup.

A. Lafreniere - F

NYR

According to Hockey Canada, Alexis Lafreniere is still a possibility to play for Canada at the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship.

Team Canada paused all activities on Tuesday after two players tested positive for COVID-19. All players and staff have been placed in a14-day isolation period. "There are precautions that you can put in place, in terms of that person and their quarantine responsibilities, in particular Alexis as he is in New York currently so there would be some quarantine restrictions on him to arrive into Canada," said Hockey Canada senior vice president of national teams Scott Salmond. "But we're going to keep that conversation going and we're going to look at all the different options still. I would say it's not out of the question." The Rangers plan to wait until the NHL makes an announcement on the 2020-21 regular-season schedule before deciding if Lafreniere will participate in the tournament.

A. Watson - F

OTT

Austin Watson is looking forward to getting a fresh start with the Ottawa Senators.

"Last season was a tough one for Nashville Predators period and individually for me," Watson said. "There were some good spots early on but with the coaching change and then around the trade deadline last year I was definitely more prepared then to be moved than I was in the summer. I figured after the Return to Play, and getting the opportunity to play throughout the playoffs (in Edmonton), I thought the ship had been kind of righted a little bit. I was a little bit caught off guard but just super-excited for a new opportunity as well." He generated six goals, 14 points, 65 penalty minutes and 131 hits in 53 games last season. Watson is expected to add some physicality and help out the penalty kill as a member of the Senators.

Liam O'Brien has signed an AHL deal with the Colorado Eagles for the 2020-21 season.

C. Glass - F

VGK

Cody Glass feels confident going into his sophomore NHL season.

Glass logged some time between Mark Stone and Max Pacioretty last year, while posting six points in his first nine games. He is projected to get a shot in the top-six forward group again this campaign after Paul Stastny was traded to Winnipeg during the offseason. "They haven’t made their expectations of me clear, but I put high expectations on myself," Glass said. "I really want to be a dominant centerman." He has gotten bigger and stronger since last season. Glass is an intriguing fantasy option going into 2020-21.

O. Koivula - F

Otto Koivula has three goals and eight assists in 12 games with HIFK of Finland's Liiga this campaign.

"When I left the Islanders, they told me the way to get more games, more minutes was to improve my skating," Koivula said. "Playing center in a European rink is a lot harder than in a North American rink, to be honest. A lot more skating, more defense. So I think it’s really good for me to do this and I’m playing pretty well." He notched nine goals and 22 points in 36 matches with Bridgeport of the AHL last season. Koivula didn't have a point in 12 outings with the Islanders in 2019-20, but he hopes playing in Europe before training camp will put him in a better position to try to earn an NHL roster spot.

M. Guenette - D

OTT

Maxence Guenette has been productive in the QMJHL this season with two goals and 11 assists through 13 games.

It's been different playing during the COVID-19 pandemic, but Guenette is glad to be on the ice. "It's pretty amazing that we can play," he said. "We're really fortunate to be able to play. Here in Val d'Or, there's not many cases so we're able to just play against teams in our division. There's many rules that we have to follow but if it's the price we pay to be able to play, it's worth it." Half of the team's gams have come against Rouyn-Noranda or Baie-Comeau, which has been "a bit repetitive" but Guenette reiterated that it's worth it to be able to play hockey right now. The Ottawa Senators selected the 19-year-old blueliner in the seventh round (187th overall) of the 2019 NHL Draft.

M. Sergachev - D

TB

Mikhail Sergachev is happy he was able to work things out with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Sergachev agreed to a three-year deal with an AAV of $4.8 million. That's a pretty fair cap hit after recording over 30 points in each of his first three seasons. “I’ve had the best memories in my hockey career here in Tampa, the first goal and the Stanley Cup and many, many more things,” Sergachev said. “I miss the boys on our team and want to get back to Tampa as soon as possible and that means a lot to me. I wouldn’t want to change the team for money.” Tampa Bay's work isn't done yet. The Lightning still need to re-sign RFAs Anthony Cirelli and Erik Cernak and find a way to get under the cap ceiling.
