Jonny Lazarus, Arthur Staple, and Mike Rupp are back for Episode 24 of the Tri-State Hockey Podcast, presented by Novig — and today the vibes are loopy amid trade deadline drama, with Rangers fans anxious about Artemi Panarin's future (Tampa emerging as a frontrunner?), Devils fans reacting to Jack Hughes' blunt media comments and Olympics dilemma, and Islanders fans eyeing a potential dip after two straight losses.The Rangers' Panarin saga drags on — the guys debate rental vs. extension packages, potential destinations like Tampa, Seattle, or Vegas, and whether history repeats with Lightning poaching another star. Plus, a voicemail on reuniting with Darren Raddysh, trading Brayden Schneider/Will Borgen, and Jonathan Quick's recent struggles.For the Devils, two massive games loom (Columbus tonight, Islanders Thursday) as they chase the Metro's third spot — but Jack Hughes' "I have nothing to say" to doubting fans sparks backlash, alongside debates on his injury, leadership maturity, and whether he should skip the Olympics for a playoff push. A voicemail calls for roster shakeups, from moving Timo Meier/Jesper Bratt to keeping Dougie Hamilton.The Islanders face a back-to-back test (Penguins tonight, Devils Thursday) amid a mini-skid — discussions on riding Ilya Sorokin's elite play (top in goals saved above expected), David Rittich's slump, and the urgent need for a scoring winger to boost their dismal power play. A voicemail from Brett blasts the Rangers' GM "fumble," praises the Devils' bright future, and celebrates the Isles' hard-fought identity.Don't miss details on the February 19th live event in NYC — Tri-State Hockey + Morning Cup of Hockey, with Q&A, drinks, and giveaways!Timestamps 00:00 – Episode 24 intro & loopy vibes 02:00 – Bet update: Isles dip raising doubts 05:00 – Live event announcement: Feb 19 in NYC 07:00 – Rangers: Panarin trade rumors, Tampa frontrunner, rental vs. extension 20:00 – Panarin decision-making & potential animosity 25:00 – Voicemail: Chris on Schneider/Borgen trades & Darren Raddysh reunion 35:00 – Jonathan Quick's metrics & trade outlook 40:00 – Devils: Key games vs. Columbus/Isles, standings chase 45:00 – Jack Hughes' media comments & fan backlash 55:00 – Hughes' leadership, maturity, & Olympics priority debate 65:00 – Potential post-Olympics shutdowns & leadership rant 70:00 – Voicemail: Dan on Devils shakeups (keep Hamilton, trade Meier/Bratt/Mercer?) 80:00 – Devils core evaluation: No-moves, injuries, & retool paths 90:00 – Islanders: Recent losses, standings pressure 95:00 – Goaltending: Ride Sorokin?
