Among the familiar faces Kreider will see in Anaheim is Jacob Trouba, his longtime teammate and former Rangers captain. The two shared six seasons together with the Rangers — Kreider as an alternate and Trouba wearing the “C” — before the latter was traded to the Ducks in December for defenseman Urho Vaakanainen and a fourth-round draft pick.

The longest-tenured Blueshirt, who first ventured to New York for the 2012 NHL playoffs at age 20 fresh off of Boston College’s campus, the 34-year-old Kreider has signed off on a trade to the Ducks, The Post’s Larry Brooks first reported Thursday.

The New York Rangers found a way to free up cap space to use this summer in one of the hardest ways for their fan base when they traded team leader Chris Kreider to the Anaheim Ducks.
