Rangers’ Schneider Extension Could Be A Quiet Win

Braden Schneider is the kind of defenseman teams pay for before he becomes a problem for the other side. The Rangers have to think about what he means long term, and the next contract will say a lot about how they value stability on the blue line. These deals are rarely glamorous, but they often tell you what a front office really believes. New York has a habit of making its biggest decisions in the margins, and this one sits right there.
