On a new episode of the “Up In The Blue Seats” podcast with Brian Boyle, Mollie Walker and Larry Brooks, they open the show talking about the trade deadline ahead on Friday. They discuss what the Rangers plan is, what players they may target to get, the last two games, Mika Zibanejad being streaky, debate whether the Rangers should consider trading Kaapo Kakko and react to the Jonathan Quick contract extension. Boyle then looks back to times he was traded in his career, including the trade to the Rangers.
(This episode was recorded prior to the Rangers acquiring Alex Wennberg)

Was this recorded prior to the Wennberg trade?
I'd like to see them get Alex Tuch.
Mika will not shoot other than when he’s on the pp. He usually starts slow, this has been 60 games of mediocrity. This is more than something new with Mika.
Brian your perspective is spot on. I like listening to all three of you but Brian definitely makes sense with how the team prioritizes its needs. You guys are right about Mika fixing Mika. Igor fixed Igor did he not lol. Buch would be my favorite to see come back to the Rangers!
You crushed it Bry.
Imagine thinking Mika is in the same universe as Barkov hahahahah😅😅😅😅😅 dude sucks. They ruined their chances to win shit when they gave that Powerplay merchant a massive deal at 30 years old instead of going all in on Eichel. No team with that bum as a 1C is winning shit. Name one playoff team who he's better than their 1C…you fkn cant. Id trade him for literally any other 1C on any playoff team, and maybe some 2Cs. Thank God for Trochek, Laffy, Bread and Quick, or they'd be out of the playoffs (where they prob belong)
LGR!!!!!!!
Literally 2 seconds after this, Rangers got Wenberg.
at this point, after a couple of years of underproduction, is the problem really the missing right wing on the mika-kreider line, or can we admit that they are the problem?
I'm going to be honest, I'm sick and tired of pretty boy Zibanejad. He's lost, his body language sucks, he's soft, he he wants no responsibility of shooting, he's done.
It’s not confounding. It’s Jonathan Quick.
Kaapo Kakko stock is so low right now, I doubt Drury can get 4th rounder in a trade. The Rangers 1st line is a problem. It’s not a 1st line. After watching games vs Isles, Leafs, & Panthers… Rangers will be lucky to get out of the 1st round.
Florida is gonna be a problem. They already were a problem and now they have Tarasenko.😬
Lindholm wasn't a mistake he was insurance in case petterson didn't sign. I don't think it's fair for Larry to say how some pro athlete would think
Without bringing in a right winger we don't get past the second round. That's how important that position is because that's how important it is that that quote unquote first line gets their act together
Next man up Brian Boyle numbah 22! ❤🙌🏻
Mebbe Mika needs a hairstyle by The Breadman. Cut that extra weight offa his melon– heck, auction the severed pony tail for Garden of Dreams, then get back to playing at the level he's being paid.
Nothing against Boyler their something to Hosting & Harts did his job well
Boyle is awesome!
Wow, wasn't sure of Brian at the at first, doing a great job. Perfect personality and insight for this.👍
A tremendous listen 🎶 👏
No, I’m happy if they win 1 😢 round Chris Drury didn’t want to give up the farm, so no cup this year
