About this episode
The Rangers’ panic button can stay in its box—at least for now. Joe and Eric record live during the Edmonton game to talk through what’s actually worth worrying about after the early-season rollercoaster. From the centennial jerseys and the “junkyard dog” energy of the bottom six to Mike Sullivan’s system slowly taking shape, they dig into why the team’s identity might finally be showing up below the top line. The guys hit on Trocheck’s LTIR situation, Morrow vs. Vaakanainen, and the surprising steadiness of the defense, while also debating whether it’s time to bump Noah Laba up and what’s really going on with Panarin. Plus: a well-earned ode to Matt Rempe and Adam Edstrom for turning the fourth line into something terrifying—in the best way possible. Give it a listen!
