Rangers head coach Peter Laviolette has made it a habit to have pointed conversations with each of his players, and Braden Schneider is no exception.
That’s because Schneider knows he hasn’t had the smoothest start to the season, during which the third-year Rangers blueliner has fallen victim to some costly defensive lapses and seemingly struggled to nail down his reads within a new system.
This is certainly new territory for Schneider, who didn’t flinch when he was called up in the middle of the 2021-22 season and quickly earned a permanent role on the right side of the Rangers’ third defensive pair. “I would say maybe a little bit of everything, but at the same time, it’s nothing that I’m not used to,” he said. “It’s not really much of an excuse. I think it’s just figuring it out and making sure that I’m making the reads quick and confidently and aggressively. I think that’s one thing I tried to make sure I’m telling myself going into games, is keeping aggressive, keeping on your toes, don’t hesitate and just trust yourself out there.
