Episode 10 of the Tri-State Hockey Podcast dives into a pivotal week for all three New York-area teams as Jonny Lazarus, Arthur Staple, and Mike Rupp break it all down. The Islanders remain one of the hottest teams in the East, but concerns arise after Bo Horvat goes down with an injury and the guys examine how sustainable this run really is. The Devils’ conversation turns tense as New Jersey’s slide continues, goaltending questions grow louder, and frustration spills out both on the ice and in the locker room. The Rangers round out the show as the guys react to a brutal no-show in Chicago, discuss the returns of Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba, and debate what’s missing from this group right now. Plus, listener voicemails and a league-wide debate on the NHL’s flawed points system and whether a 3-2-1 format should be adopted.
