Overview
- The teams have agreed on a tentative framework that would send Kreider to Anaheim in exchange for a prospect and a draft pick.
- Anaheim would assume the winger’s full $6.5 million annual salary over the remaining two years of his contract.
- Kreider is expected to waive his 15-team no-trade clause to play for new Ducks coach Joel Quenneville.
- Moving his cap hit would free critical salary space for New York, which currently has just $8.4 million available.
- The deal would reunite Kreider with former Rangers captain Jacob Trouba, who was traded to the Ducks last season.
