The offseason has been focused on maintaining the defensive line, and the Rangers have just one more piece of the puzzle left to complete the big picture.
Braden Schneider became the latest player to re-sign with the Blueshirts on Saturday, signing a two-year bridge contract worth $4.4 million. From PuckPedia.
The 22-year-old will likely be on the second pairing with K’Andre Miller next season, continuing the duo that thrived together in 2023-24.
The deal means Schneider will again become a restricted free agent in two years and is due to sign either a new stopgap contract or a longer-term extension.
Ryan Lindgren is the final player the Rangers will have to deal with on defense.
Lindegren filed for arbitration before the deadline last week.
