Broadway Debuts & Blueshirt Blues

The Rangers finished dead last in the Metro at 34-39-9, traded Artemi Panarin in February, traded Vincent Trocheck in July, and dropped their preseason opener 3-2 to a Devils team dressing most of its NHL roster. So naturally, we're calling it a bounce-back year.BG is joined by Liam Kirby for a full New York Rangers 2026-27 preview.We break down the rookie showcase and No. 5 overall pick Alberts Smits, who's been on the third pair with Braden Schneider since day one of camp. We get into Liam Greentree, the return in the Panarin trade, and whether he makes that deal look better in three years. We audit five and a half years of Chris Drury, from the Presidents' Trophy to last place, including the connection nobody's made on air: the first-round pick from the K'Andre Miller trade is the same pick that became Pavel Dorofeyev's $11 million contract.Plus the waiver math that decides this roster, why Will Cuylle is on the third line on purpose, whether the Rangers lose Dylan Garand for nothing, and a GM for a Day segment that gets out of hand.Presented by Buttery Roller Co.
