The Rangers and Restricted Free Agent will have 15 more days to try and work out a new contract, or it will be put in the hands of an arbiter. The NHLPA announced today the schedule for hearings, and Mats Zuccarello is scheduled for July 31st.
Zuccarello has played parts of three seasons with the Rangers, and joined them late this past year following a stint in the KHL, and registed three goals and five assists to go with a +10 rating in just 15 games. He followed that up as the second highest point getter for the Rangers in the post season, with one goal and six assists.
