#100: We Made It to 100 Episodes

It's the 100th episode of Blueshirt Bandwidth. They said we wouldn't get here. Who said that? We're not sure, but they definitely exist and they definitely said it. We guess this is the John Davidson Episode, as he's the only Ranger to have worn 00 in a game. Joe is calling in from a hotel with poor internet and no video, marking the milestone with (fittingly) the roughest audio setup in the show's history. From there, Joe and Eric break down the reported Eeli Tolvanen signing—a one-year, $1.5 million deal—and what it means for the bottom nine, sketching out new forward combinations and debating who gets squeezed out (Taylor Raddysh, Matt Rempe, Adam Sykora) versus who should actually be the 13th forward. They also revisit the Scott Morrow debate, argue over how many more years the Rangers can lean on a 28-year-old Adam Fox and 30-year-old Igor Shesterkin, and reopen the case for the franchise's worst trade ever—Sergei Zubov and Petr Nedved for Ulf Samuelsson and Luc Robitaille, or Pavel Buchnevich for a practically nothing. Plus: where Connor Hellebuyck could actually land and if Auston Matthews and Connor McDavid will command the max in their next contracts.
