from Rink Rap | A New York Rangers Podcast from Forever Blueshirts

The NHL trade deadline arrives Friday at 3 p.m. Eastern, and Jim Cerny breaks down exactly where the New York Rangers stand heading into one of the most pivotal 72 hours in franchise history. This isn't just about who gets moved on Friday — it's about the full shape of the retool: who stays, who goes at the deadline and beyond, what the Rangers must demand in return, and which young players are ready to step into the picture sooner than you might think. Plus, Gabe Perreault's emergence takes center stage, and Adam Fox's future gets a hard look after some notably ambiguous comments.Chapters:0:00 — Intro: Deadline Week Is Here Setting the table for Friday's 3 p.m. deadline and why it's not the only date that matters in the retool.6:00 — Rangers Post-Break Report Card Three overtime games, two collapses, one comeback — what the results actually say about this team.11:22 — Gabe Perreault Is Figuring It Out Career-high three points vs. Columbus, growing confidence, and what it would mean for this season if he emerges as a top-six fixture.17:34 — Adam Fox's Ambiguous Future Fox sidesteps two direct questions about staying.

Why Noah Laba is already a core piece.50:46 — Schneider and Lafreniere: Not Going at the Deadline Jim's take on why both stay for now, and what kind of return they'd need to justify an offseason move.54:38 — Carrick, Raddysh, Othman, Berard: Who Stays, Who Goes Sorting through the bottom-six — who has value, who Sullivan doesn't trust, and who needs to clear a spot.1:01:44 — Connor Sheary: Find Him a New Home A Sully favorite, but his roster spot needs to go to younger players. Trade him for whatever you can get.1:03:20 — Kartye and Iorio: Low-Risk, High-Upside Additions Why claiming both off waivers was the right move, and how Iorio fits in as Morrow competition.1:05:48 — Prospects Turning Pro: Greentree, Aspinall, Fortescue, Lamb Who's expected to make the jump to Hartford this spring — and a reality check on prospect hype.1:08:41 — Closing: The Retool Is a Process, Not a Deadline Final thoughts and a reminder that more moves are coming all summer long.
