Jim talks about Rangers big game vs. Flyers as they head into the holiday break.

On a special Friday edition of Rink Rap, Jim is joined by NHL Network's E.J. Hradek. 

The NHL has never been this wide-open – we dive into historic league-wide parity and map the Rangers’ clearest path back to the postseason in a brutal Metro.

Inside the episode:

• Metro madness + early playoff race breakdown
• Penguins-Oilers goalie swap dissected
• Will J.T. Miller make Team USA for the 2026 Olympics under Mike Sullivan? If he’s snubbed, how awkward does it get in the Rangers room?

All the angles on the Rangers’ season and the flat-out wild NHL landscape, in under an hour. Let’s go.

From wild 2011 Europe trip tales (Gaborik billboards & Hank hysteria) to breaking down the Rangers' infuriating OT loss in Vegas, how the team aced a tough week, Gustafsson trade buzz, Perreault vs. Sheary debate, Trouba's controversial check, and a quick lookahead to the next two games.

Jim talks about the TERRIBLE call against Rangers vs. Vegas and the latest Gustafsson trade rumors.

Jim asks the questions and ponders the answer on Perreault and Sheary!

Jim continues his conversation with Tim and talks about his TV role with the Utah Mammoth.

Jonathan Quick channels his prime with a 40-save clinic against Detroit—only for the Rangers to blow it, sparking his epic bench brawl. We unpack the Blueshirts' 1-7-1 Garden nightmare, preview a brutal road trip, eye December's home-heavy slate, break down Perreault's minors return, and rave about Scott Morrow's debut.

In segment one, we talk about how it was a crime Rangers didn't get Jonathan Quick a win Sunday night, he was unreal, turned back the clock with a 40-save outing—also, touched on the reasons for him charging of the bench after final buzzer and starting "brawl" with Red Wings.
