Blueshirt Bandwidth #103: Is Alberts Smits Already an Opening-Night Lock?

Episode 103 of Blueshirt Bandwidth is the Tom Poti Episode—fitting for a show that, like Poti, could go either way—and Joe shares how a drunk fan at the Garden gave Poti a nickname that stuck in his family for years. With Eric out, Joe and Chip react to Urho Vaakanainen getting sent to Hartford, make the case that Alberts Smits walks into the opening-night lineup, and work through a waiver crunch involving Scott Morrow, Matthew Robertson, Vincent Iorio and Matt Rempe, plus why carrying three goalies makes no sense for anyone. They also debate whether Will Cuylle prices himself out of New York, why Devils fans can't stop watching the Rangers, whether New Jersey can land Connor Hellebuyck, and why Chris Drury gets held to a different standard than Winnipeg and Detroit. Plus: surprise and disappointment picks around the league, game-day superstitions and Joe's post-Disney depression. Give it a listen!
