Smart enough to get that contract. We could all learn a thing or two from this guy.

I think the Rangers must have already shopped him before putting him on waivers, indicating little interest at this contract price. My sense is that this is intended more as a (misguided) wake up call to Smith who will eventually get recalled. My biggest problem with all this is he's been put in a position to fail by this rigid coach who has completely failed to adapt to the league.Brendan Smith plays a physical game, some gm will pick him up.
It's mind blowing how many people in here are quick to simply blame coaching... Guy's on his 3rd NHL coach, how many is it going to take?
Under Babcock - not a good player
Under Blashill - not a good player
Under Vigneault - not a good player
Anybody see a pattern?
Yikes, on his birthday too? Poor bastard.

I'm fine with that contract for what he brings to the playoffs when it matters. Of course you have to make the playoffs firstTerrible contract, Many on here Called it. How are GMs so bad at their job?
But Smith, an affable Type-A personality who was one of the Blueshirts’ most important players in the playoffs, bears the responsibility for the train wreck that his 2017-18 became right out of the gate following a summer in which he got married and, as he told the Rangers’ website prior to camp, was a guest at seven other weddings. Maybe No. 42 was even able to sneak in some time for conditioning between bashes.
Thanks for pick #34, NYR!
