On a new episode of the “Up In The Blue Seats” podcast, Jake Brown and Mollie Walker open the show talking about the Rangers trading for Tyler Motte. They discuss Motte’s return to the Blueshirts, the two-game losing streak and Igor Shesterkin’s struggles. (7:20) Former Ranger, MSG Network and NHL Network analyst Mike Rupp then joins the pod. Rupp discusses the Rangers play, why the Devils should trade for Timo Meier, the Motte trade, whether the Rangers should still go for Patrick Kane and what other players Chris Drury could target before the trade deadline. The former Rangers center and Devils Stanley Cup champion also gets into how difficult it is to adjust to a new team when getting traded midseason, why these Rangers can win a championship, his prediction for who wins it all and reacting to Shesterkin’s up and down goaltending this year.
