Chad Ruhwedel finally getting his Rangers chance with blueline injuries mounting
NY Post
Chad Ruhwedel’s early Rangers days were humbling.
A 12-year veteran who spent the last seven-plus seasons with the Penguins, with whom he won a Stanley Cup in 2016-17, Ruhwedel was acquired by the Rangers ahead of the trade deadline for a 2027 fourth-round pick as defensive depth.
With Jacob Trouba out with a lower-body injury, Ruhwedel was expected to slot into the lineup and help fill that void.
But he was a healthy scratch for his first six games with the team, including a 7-4 win over the Penguins at his old stomping grounds in Pittsburgh.
He received a video tribute from the team, but was forced to embrace the fans from the press box since he was not playing.
But Ryan Lindgren’s injury, also to his lower body, finally brought Ruhwedel into the fold.

The hypocrisy of ESPN now claiming disgust over Bronny James goes back most glaringly to draft day — I believe it was the second of the new two-day draft, another Adam Silver special — when its coverage tried to establish a hot market for Bronny. The network suggested on several occasions that Bronny might not be available when the Lakers chose. A Lakers reporter pulled a quote from Anthony Davis about how Bronny can “guard multiple positions” and “turn into an elite shotmaker.”
