#95: Kirill, McCann, or Jail?

<p>Episode 95 of Blueshirt Bandwidth is the Vinni Lettieri Episode. Joe and Eric break down Kirill Marchenko&#39;s availability out of Columbus and why the Rangers—having already spent their futures on Dorofeyev—don&#39;t have the assets left to get in on him, then split over whether Jared McCann is worth acquiring, with Joe a hard no and Eric more willing to pay up for center depth. The back half covers a Cup-timeline projection, whether Christian Pulisic is the USMNT&#39;s answer to Alexi Lafrenière, gut-feeling predictions on which East and West bubble teams make and miss the playoffs, a Braden Schneider-for-Jake DeBrusk trade proposal, and why Rod Brind&#39;Amour—not Raleigh—is the real reason stars keep turning down Carolina. Plus: a closing detour through Cincinnati chili, Altoona pizza, and the worst thing Joe has ever seen in an airport bathroom.</p><p><a href="https://www.blueshirtbanter.com/podcast-ombudsman-report-for-blueshirt-bandwidth-ep-94/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Podcast Ombudsman Report for Blueshirt Bandwidth Ep. 94</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/@BlueshirtBanter" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Watch &amp; subscribe to the podcast on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a></p><p><a href="https://www.blueshirtbanter.com/#/portal/signup" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to Blueshirt Banter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠</a> for $85/year to read and comment on all of our great content!</p>
