Babcock is Cringe and Trouba is Daddy
Update 9/19/23: Shortly after the release of this episode, more details on the Babcock situation came to light. Carlo, while not walking back his comments, has changed his mind and no longer defends Babcock in any way.   This week, the guys chat about the Aaron Rodgers injury, and then Carlo goes full boomer regarding the Babcock situation. Then the team goes fully in on defending Jacob Trouba. The episode is giving daddy, and the vibes are on point, no cap straight fax. We also play Name that Player.

The NHL’s Problem is not ESPN

Celebrating the Demises of the Bruins and Penguins
Apologies for non-ideal audio! With that out of the way, the trio discuss some minor Rangers news (Hmura's hiring, Scanlin signing) and proceed to dance on the grave of Boston after Krecji's retirement and Pittsburgh after the Erik Karlsson trade. As you would expect we take plenty of detours; notably what our trade package is for Charlie McAvoy (you will hate it!) and how much we truly hate Penguins fans.   Follow us on Twitter: @rangerthings23 Shoot us an email: contact@rangerthingspodcast.com Visit the revamped website and become a member: rangerthingspodcast.com
