Blueshirt Bandwidth #93: The Braden Schneider Quandary
Braden Schneider is still here, and Joe and Chip try to untangle the Rangers' logjam on the right side of the blueline.
Episode 93 of Blueshirt Bandwidth is the Mika Zibanejad Episode—Joe and Chip, in his second straight week as guest host, break down James Dolan handing the Rangers' and Knicks' COO job to his son Quentin and what it does (and doesn't) mean for Chris Drury, torch the Carolina Hurricanes for engraving the owner's entire family on the Stanley Cup while leaving off a longtime equipment manager, and spend a long stretch on Braden Schneider's arbitration filing—how arbitration actually works, a right-side defense logjam that includes Scott Morrow's waiver issue and Alberts Smits' Olympic pedigree, and whether the Rangers are quietly stalling to flip Schneider's rights to someone. Plus: the Leo Carlsson offer sheet reshaping the market for Bedard and Celebrini, who scores for the Rangers without Artemi Panarin, a Wolf Pack-vs.-Rangers mailbag question, and a Gilligan's Island-and-Bash-at-the-Beach closer that does not go well for Joe.
