Kreider's 50-Point Season Making a Point
New York Ranger Chris Kreider notched his 50th point this season the other night despite the team's loss.

Kreider will continue to impress, especially as the Rangers head into the playoffs later this month. [Blue Line Station]
Weal is a Positive of the End of the Season
The Flyers recalled Jordan Weal in February to fill an injury hole and Weal has been impressing ever since. Weal has made the most of his call-up and has notched six goals and two assists in 17 games so far. Weal's play has been an upside of the end of the season where some fans might be disappointed by the lack of a playoff spot. [Broad Street Buzz]
Anderson in the Masterson Running
Ottawa goaltender Craig Anderson has entered the race for the Masterson Trophy for his dedication to the game. This season has been a rough one for Anderson concerning his wife, Nicholle's cancer diagnosis. Players throughout the NHL, and the league itself has expressed their condolences and admiration for Anderson and his family as they have navigated this tough time. Anderson is the perfect candidate for the Masterson and many would be disappointed to see someone other than Anderson bring it home. [SenShot]
