Episode 140 of the "New Ice City" podcast features all the latest NHL trade deadline chatter surrounding the New York Rangers, who have cemented their status as a Stanley Cup contender after going 10-1 in the month of February. ESPN's Emily Kaplan joins the show to discuss the trade market and potential Blueshirts' targets, plus host Vincent Mercogliano answers fans' questions regarding Matt Rempe, Mika Zibanejad and the possibility of adding a defenseman. 

The Islanders are really struggling on and off the ice. With a 5-8-2 record, they are last in the Metropolitan Division – not only that, they have seven players with COVID-19, two with serious injuries and a new arena to get comfortable with. The season is 15 games young, but we must ask the question: are the Islanders in trouble? I analyzed this dilemma with Drive4Five contributors Jacob Beekman and Jack Kobil, who encouraged fans to always believe and stay positive, but simultaneously realize the team has things they need to solve. So, are you worried? Before you answer, listen to Episode #10 of Bleav in Islanders so you can find out all things Islanders!

Alex and Josh bring you a teaspoon of nonsense as they watch and react to the Seattle Kraken's expansion draft. Alex explains how he suffered heart palpitations over the last 24 hours at the thought of his Habs losing Carey Price to the Kraken (1:07), and Josh expounds on his love affair with the Florida Panthers (3:11). The boys try to make sense of Seattle selecting Mark Giordano from Calgary (4:36), and highlight the theme of youthful talent that runs throughout GM Ron Francis' selections (5:20). Josh laments how the past two expansion teams have pouched good young defensemen from his LA Kings, Brayden McNabb to the Knights and now Kurtis MacDermid to the Kraken (6:28). The duo assess the Kraken's chances next season (13:59), and jest about Brandon Tanev's viral headshot (14:43).
