A recent report suggests the Detroit Red Wings may do the unexpected this offseason by acquiring a long-term New York Rangers rival, Chris Kreider.
The 2024/25 NHL regular season is unfortunately coming to an end, and as the summer begins to creep up around the corner, new insight has begun to surface regarding what fan's can expect to happen this off-season, and a new report has just suggested the Detroit Red Wings may acquire an enemy from the New York Rangers.
A report was revealed earlier today, Saturday, April 12, by Michael DeRosa from NHLtraderumours.me, suggesting that the Detroit Red Wings may just do the unthinkable this summer.
The reporter began to unveil the forward has the potential to be moved out of New York as speculations have been ongoing towards the veteran several months prior to the NHL Trade Deadline.
This being said, Kreider has still been a hot topic for this off-season, leaving the forward to continue generating immense interest around the league, and reporter DeRosa made some good points regarding why the rival may just be an ideal hit for Detroit.
"The Red Wings are likely going to look to add to their forward group this off-season, so Kreider could grab their attention. If acquired, he would have the potential to boost the Red Wings' top six on the wing, which is something they need. Thus, they could be a team to watch in the sweepstakes."
Michael DeRosa wrote.Needless to say, Detroit has evidently been struggling offensively, especially as of late, however, Kreider might just be the missing puzzle piece the Red Wings have been needing, an experienced and talented player would not be a bad idea.
Not to mention the Red Wings are already anticipating the departure of their veteran, Patrick Kane, which would ultimately leave the organization with less experienced leaders in Detroit.
Meanwhile, the 33-year old forward, Chris Kreider, may just be the best option to secure a competitive leader for next season, with 21 goals, 5 assists, totaling at 26 points within just 66 games, the organization could definitely be open to the veteran making his way to Detroit.
