Rangers' Chris Kreider: Likely out Wednesday

Kreider (neck) is not expected to play in Wednesday's clash with the Bruins, according to head coach Alain Vigneault, Brett Cyrgalis of the New York Post reports. Vigneault added that Kreider "might be more than day-to-day."

Analysis:

Aside from Vignealt's ominously phrased description, there hasn't been any indication as to when Kreider might return to action. Kreider was off to an excellent start to the season, so his return would be welcomed by the Rangers and fantasy owners alike. Stay tuned for more updates on his health as they come in.
