Episode 71 of Blueshirt Bandwidth opens with Joe and Eric in unusually good spirits—thanks to an Olympic break and a Rangers schedule that has mercifully paused the chaos. From there, the episode turns to the main event (again): the Artemi Panarin trade. Joe and Eric push back hard against revisionist criticism of Chris Drury, unpacking how Panarin’s no-movement clause and agent maneuvering boxed the Rangers into a single-buyer market. They debate whether waiting would have changed anything, why the return was always going to be limited, and what fair criticism of management actually looks like. The conversation expands into Liam Greentree’s value, the organization’s troubling history with prospect development, Mike Sullivan’s lineup decisions, and why “small” choices add up to systemic dysfunction. The episode closes with frustration over the Rangers’ PR culture, leadership optics, and the growing pressure surrounding Vincent Trocheck’s future. It’s a wide-ranging, argumentative, and deeply analytical episode about leverage, development, and whether this organization is finally learning from its mistakes. Give it a listen!
