Rangers Offseason Roundtable: Lafrenière's Ceiling, Trocheck's Future & the #5 Pick — w/Broadway Block

About this episode

The episode features a roundtable discussion on the New York Rangers' offseason, focusing on player potential and team strategy.

Jim Cerny is joined by Steve and Joe of Broadway Block for a wide-open Rangers roundtable as the offseason takes shape. The crew debates whether Alexis Lafrenière can finally hit superstar territory on the Mika/Perreault line, why JT Miller has to bounce back, and whether Chris Drury is the right man to steer this retool. Plus: the top-six skill problem, the case for trading up (or staying put) at #5 for Anton Frondell or Porter Martone, Braydon Schneider's bridge-deal future, the Vincent Trocheck timing question, and why the Rangers still need to address the backup goalie spot behind Igor — even with Dylan Garand pushing for it. Live chat questions from the Blueshirts faithful sprinkled throughout.
