• The Anaheim Ducks are placing Chris Kreider on waivers to terminate his contract and clear up more cap space. (Friedman)

    Kreider has agreed to this as he hopes to return to the East coast.

    He was slated to be in the last year of his seven-year contract that had a cap hit of $6.5 million but only $4 million in actual salary.

    The Rangers traded Kreider to Anaheim last year with the Ducks 2025 4th round pick for Carey Terrance and a 2025 third round pick that the Rangers used to select Artyom Gonchar.

    Last season for the Ducks, Kreider had 22 goals and 28 assists. Terrance had 8 goals and 9 assists in his rookie season in Hartford.
