BC's Kreider Hits 50 Goals for First Time

Chris Kreider (Boston College) registered his first 50-goal NHL campaign with a goal in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to Carolina. He now has 50 goals and 21 assists for a career-high 71 points through 75 contests this season, which far eclipses his previous best of 28-2553 points in 75 games in 2016-17.

He has also tallied 227 goals and 190 assists for 417 points in 649 career regular-season NHL games, all with the New York Rangers, who drafted him 19th overall in 2009. He was held scoreless in tonight's 4-0 win at Philadelphia, as New York improved to 48-21-6. 

Kreider, 30, a left wing from Boxboro, Mass., played at BC from 2009 to 2021, collecting 49 goals and 92 points over three seasons, while helping the Eagles to NCAA titles in both 2008 and 2010.
