Blueshirt Bandwidth #67: Nobody Cares, Everybody’s Guilty, and the 10–2 Breaking Point
The Rangers are toast, the locker room feels hollow, and patience is officially gone. Joe and Eric argue about blame, leadership, and what burning it down really means.
Episode 67 of Blueshirt Bandwidth finds Joe and Eric officially past the point of pretending individual games matter. After some housekeeping, news about the pod being available on YouTube, and the Benoit Pouliot/Boo Nieves jersey-number tradition, the show quickly turns into a full-scale autopsy of a season that finally hit rock bottom with a 10–2 loss in Boston. From there, the conversation spirals into what actually matters now: accountability, apathy, and whether anyone in the Rangers’ locker room truly gives a damn. Joe lays out a firm line in the sand for Chris Drury, while Eric pushes back on leadership failures, J.T. Miller’s captaincy, and the organization’s long-running inability to sell assets at peak value. They also grapple with the uncomfortable reality of Alexis Lafrenière’s stagnation, what it says about player development, and why this roster feels more country club than contender. It’s a raw, argumentative, big-picture episode about blame, culture, and why burning it down may be the only honest path forward. Give it a listen!
