Episode 11: Little Late For Mika And Fitz

Episode 11 of the Tri-State Hockey Podcast dives headfirst into the chaos surrounding the New York Rangers, as Jonny Lazarus is joined by longtime NHL reporter Arthur Staple and Stanley Cup champion Mike Rupp to unpack one of the most talked-about situations in the league. The trio breaks down Mika Zibanejad being scratched for missing a team meeting, what it says about standards inside the Rangers’ room, and whether this moment signals something larger about the organization’s direction. From Chris Kreider and Jacob Trouba’s emotional return to Madison Square Garden to speculation around the Rangers’ reported interest in Quinn Hughes and what that means for Adam Fox, nothing is off the table. The conversation then shifts to the New Jersey Devils, where frustration is mounting after missing out on Hughes, questions surround Tom Fitzgerald’s long-term plan, and the impact of no-move clauses, injuries, and roster construction comes under the microscope. A must-listen episode for Rangers, Devils, and Islanders fans alike.
