As a whole, this season was a disappointment for the New York Rangers. Missing the playoffs for the first time since 2009-10, expectations were certainly not met and, all in all, the season was lost at the trade deadline.
One of the disappointments that was certainly the most surprising, was defenseman Brady Skjei. He vastly underperformed, on a team that was faltering and failing in all areas on the ice.
Skjei is a restricted free agent this offseason, but he should be a shoe-in re-sign for the Rangers. John Gilmour, Rob O’Gara, and Ryan Sproul are also free agents this summer alongside Skjei.
