When a Clown Car is Always on the Wrong Side of the Road
The show started out entertaining for me a few years back. It still had obnoxious, and hard-to-listen-to moments (like the know -it-all, Greg, consistently yelling over his partner), but it was NY Rangers & NHL content. So I listened. Because God forbid local radio ever talk hockey in depth. There have been moments of laughter and insight on this show. But that has become less and less of the content. And the past 2 seasons have been muck racking central. With overblown dramatic takes, and these two clowns falsely creating a narrative that the GM was really bad at his job (proven wrong) and that the head coach was also bad at his job (proven wrong with back to back 100+ seasons), it became unbearable to listen to the hate spewed. The laughter then became a by-product of their “inside info” that the players hate Gallant and play in spite of him. Meanwhile, the guy has a rep that players would run thru a wall for this coach. Then to add salt into the infected wound this show has become w/ zero credibility, they entertain guests who tout charts as if it’s gospel. Their player assessments, and takes are usually way off base from the eye test, and intangibles that a player brings to the table. Just straight up video game dorkery. My favorite is when they have on the girl with blue hair who sounds like shes wired on Aderall giving takes so sure of herself that these two clowns just swoon over it. Lol. The best was she recently claimed that players like Kravstov (who’s been a health scratch multiple times in NY & now VAN) was a victim of Russian/Euro bias by the N.A. Coach and front office. They refused to admit that well- he just sucked. It’s a clown show. So for pure entertainment, if you’re looking for fictional NY Ranger talk by a crew who spews as if it’s fact, in a fake it till ya make it attitude- the show is def. for you.

Ryan and Greg are great at running through the rangers issues top to bottom and deliver it in the funniest way possible.
