Episode 15: Fox Snubbed, Horvat Hurt, Devils Drama

Jonny Lazarus, Arthur Staple, and Mike Rupp kick off 2026 with a fiery Episode 15, reacting to the freshly announced Team USA Olympic roster and its massive implications for the Tri-State teams! The trio unpacks the stunning Adam Fox snub—why he was left off despite his elite play, the potential fallout with Rangers management (including GM Chris Drury and coach Mike Sullivan), and what it means for Fox’s future in New York. They also debate other notable omissions like Jason Robertson, compare Seth Jones’ inclusion, and explore whether this could light a fire under Fox or spark bigger changes. Later, they tackle the Islanders’ recent struggles and offensive woes, the Devils’ emotional rollercoaster (including that wild Columbus comeback), Jack Hughes vs. Matt Barzal, and a quick look ahead to the Winter Classic in Miami.
