Will be tuning in. Awesome guest. You guys rock, have been listening forever.
Congrats on the upcoming 8 years. Hands down the best Rangers podcast out there.
Recently moved away from the NY area, and not that the major media outlets covered NYR anyway,
but you two do an awesome job and I'm very happy you aren't affiliated with the team.
Long Live The Underground!

Congrats Mouth, that is a great get on the guest.

One request, can you ask him to walk you through the build up of the Zubov and Nedved for Ulf Samuelsson and Luc Robitaille trade. Was Nedved pushed out by Messier? In my opinion, that trade was the first step towards the dark ages for the Rangers. More so the mentality behind it.

 

[Captain Lindy]

I hope you don't spend too much time on '94. We all know it was great and all but I want his take on today's Ranger team.

Sure I will ask him.

thanks Ulfie !

 

[Bluenote13]

Hey Mouth, ask him who his most disappointing draft pick was while he was with the Rangers. Thanks !

 

[Inferno]

Ask him wtf happened with the islanders where he left the job so quickly

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

I would like to hear him about the whole Nedved saga.

 

[NickyFotiu]

I'd like to know what the heck happened with Brendl. He was sold as the next Mike Bossy.

Can I listen to a rebroadcast tomorrow?

 

[Elliman]

Ask him if he's been offered any GM position lately. His take on JD moving from broadcast into management and what was the biggest name he turned down in a trade.

 

[Boris Zubov]

I would ask him why their drafts were so poor from 92-on & if he regrets not keeping Messier after the '97 playoffs.

Plus I would ask him about the awful trade at the '96 deadline & if there were other trades on the table at the time.

 

[Cyclones21]

Eddie/Jim: this is a tough question to phrase without being offensive. We know his tail end of his time with the Rangers led to his firing. For someone who was able to win a cup with a franchise for the first time in 54 years and the only one since (the game has changed), how many opportunities has he had to get another job?

If you guys have time I would love to know some insights on
a) Eric Lindros Quebec trade that almost happened
b) Joe Sakic offer sheet and how close?

(Pat Hickey!!)

 

[The Mouth]

I will try to ask all these questions all of which are great !

Bump for time of show and yes Nick Fotiu you can listen tomorrow.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Did Neil Smith ever show up? I listened for a while but no Neil Smith.

 

[Lion Hound]

Ask him if Joey Kocur really broke Jay Caufields Helmet with a right hand.
