Comments:

• For how big the article is, I think the lead should be expanded some.
• Stats section doesn't have a source.

  WikiOriginal-9, at the very bottom of this article it says Biographical information and career statistics from.... HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:24, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

• I wonder if this article couldn't benefit from some season subheadings. I know you've probably been intentionally not too doing that but it might make navigation a little easier. It looks like Sydney Crosby doesn't have season subheadings because each season just has its own paragraph but for Chris Kreider some of the seasons have multiple paragraphs so subheadings might be helpful.
• No source for height and weight in the infobox or him shooting left.

  NHL.com and Hockey Ref say he is 230 lbs. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 23:34, 5 November 2024 (UTC)  Done

• Add commons to external links section.  Done
• "Although he transferred to Phillips Andover for his junior year, Kreider repeated his sophomore year at the private school" What private school? The previous sentence said he went to public school.
  • WikiOriginal-9 He repeated his sophomore year at Phillips Andover despite technically being a junior. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 16:41, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

  So was he in high school for four years or five? ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 17:08, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

  WikiOriginal-9 Obvi I will try and find a better source, but according to this "He agreed to enter Andover as a repeat sophomore but was able to graduate in 2 years by taking an accelerated summer program at the end of his final year." HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:32, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

  That will work. ~WikiOriginal-9~ (talk) 22:51, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

  Done! HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:20, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

• Was he at Phillips Andover for three years? Article only mentions two years: "In his first year" and "He improved the following year"

  I think I answered this above but it was two years at Masconomet Regional High School and two years at Phillips Andover. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:20, 5 November 2024 (UTC)

• "in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft" Lowercase entry draft. It's lowercased now (for right or wrong)  Done

I don't think you wrote this since it's after your GA nom date, but the sentence is kind of long and it doesn't follow your earlier style of mentioning what teams they played and stuff.
