Report: Rangers' Chris Kreider signs off on trade to Ducks
Chris Kreider agreed to waive his no-trade clause in a deal that, once finalized, will send the longest-tenured member of the Rangers to the Anaheim Ducks, the New York Post reported.
Kreider, who first suited up for the Rangers in the 2012 NHL playoffs, gave the OK on the reported deal Thursday morning. The Ducks were on the forward's 15-team no-trade list.
Multiple media reports said the Rangers will receive forward Carey Terrance and a mid-round draft pick from the Ducks for Kreider and another mid-round pick. Anaheim also will take on all of Kreider's $6.5 million cap hit over each of the next two seasons.
Kreider, 34, is entering the sixth season of a seven-year, $45.5 million contract. The Massachusetts native is slated to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, 2027.
Kreider and then-Rangers captain Jacob Trouba were made available on the trade market earlier this season following a league-wide memo from New York general manager Chris Drury. The Ducks then acquired Trouba on Dec. 6 for defenseman Urho Vaakanainen and a fourth-round pick in the 2025 NHL Draft.
Kreider recorded just 30 points in 68 games this season while nursing both back spasms and an illness.
Earlier, he discussed his desire to stay in New York.
"I mean, this is home for me," Kreider said in late April, per the New York Post. "This is the organization that gave me an opportunity to live out my dream. I've developed so many incredible relationships and grown up and spent so much time in this area. So, obviously, this is where I want to be and this is the group I want to help in whatever fashion and win hockey games."
The franchise's third all-time leading goal scorer , Kreider also has 256 assists for 582 points in 883 career games since the Rangers selected him with the 19th overall pick of the 2009 NHL Draft.
Terrance, 20, was selected by the Ducks in the second round of the 2023 NHL Draft. He recorded 39 points in 45 games this past season with the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League.

Brady Martin's grit and skill make him a true NHL Draft prospect gem
Brady Martin (via Getty Images) Few prospects have climbed draft boards as rapidly with the approach of the 2025 NHL Draft as Brady Martin. With modest rankings by Central Scouting and some consensus lists early this season, Brady Martin's stock has skyrocketed on the strength of a standout OHL season and equally impressive performance at the NHL Scouting Combine. Brady Martin's snapshot: An NHL power forward An unusual combination of power, leadership, and NHL-caliber competitiveness, Brady Martin is the type of two-way center general managers desire and one that several top-10 clubs are now examining more heavily. Brady Martin, 6'1", 195-pound right-handed center, patterns his game after physically inclined forwards such as Sam Bennett, Tom Wilson, and Matthew Knies—the three featuring a reputation for being gritty and determined in big games. Brady Martin, however, is more than a wrecking ball on blades. NHL Draft Prospects: Brady Martin He excelled at the junior international level as well, with 11 points in 7 games at the Hlinka Gretzky Cup to lead Canada to gold. He has leadership skills as well: he had an 'A' for both Team Canada and for the Soo Greyhounds, showing how mature and composed he is on and off the ice. With Matvei Michkov as their emerging offensive sensation, the Philadelphia Flyers may complement their rebuild with Martin's hard-nosed, blue-collar approach—a perfect match for a Rick Tocchet-coached squad. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 혈압 안정화를 돕는 블러디션 배합 성분 메디셜 더 읽기 Undo BRADY MARTIN – A Nightmare to Play Against | 2025 NHL Draft Highlights & Scouting Report The Boston Bruins invited Martin out to dinner at the combine—a possible indicator of legitimate interest. With a fairly thin prospect pool and a Bergeron-era closeout underway, Boston may need to rely on a tough-minded center like Martin to construct around him. He would immediately become their best forward prospect. If Martin bypasses the top 10, GM Kyle Dubas, who is Soo Greyhounds-connected, might strike. The Pittsburgh Penguins require future center depth to ultimately replace Crosby and Malkin. Martin's resilience, leadership, and ceiling render him perfect for their next era. Also read: Martin Necas' uncertain future sparks big questions for Hurricanes and Avalanche Brady Martin is more than a generic safe two-way forward. He's a tone-setting, pro-level center with the attitude and equipment to play NHL minutes earlier than most in the 2025 class. When teams consider upside against readiness, Martin could be the unusual pick who delivers both.
