Morning Cuppa Hockey rolls on as Jonny and Colby open with a wild night at MSG. The Rangers pull out a chaotic win that featured the craziest period Jonny has ever seen, with Vinny looking like the missing piece, K’Andre Miller snapping a six-game drought, and Will Cuylle scoring again to make it four in four. Are the Rangers officially back? The guys break down what this win says about New York’s identity.

They then tackle the league-wide goaltending slump, with an entire wave of starters — Vasilevskiy, Oettinger, Sorokin, Swayman, Gustavsson, Wolf, Bobrovsky, Stolarz, Saros, Binnington, and Markstrom — all sitting below a .900 save percentage. Jonny and Colby dig into what’s driving this and whether today’s offensive pace is leaving goalies behind.

Jim Dowd joins the show to talk coaching, leadership, and giving back. He walks through his work with the Red Bank Generals, his “Shoot for the Stars” foundation, bouncing around 10 NHL teams (11 stops including two runs with the Devils), and how constant movement affects a family. He also gives insight into the grind of the ECHL, where his son Jimmy Jr. is battling with Adirondack.

Next, the guys break down the Devils’ latest surge, highlighted by Simon Nemec’s hat trick and a lineup overcoming wave after wave of injuries. Sheldon Keefe deserves real credit, Bedard just keeps scoring, and Spencer Knight’s play remains strong despite an exhausting workload — facing 30+ shots in 9 of his 12 starts.

Roslovic stays hot with back-to-back overtime winners after going unsigned all summer, while the Oilers pull out consecutive OT victories of their own following the 9–1 meltdown. Are both teams finally turning the corner?

We close with Utah’s four-goal third-period comeback against Buffalo. Peterka scores — because of course he does — Schmaltz hits double digits with his 10th, and the Sabres fall to 5-7-4, once again sitting last in the East where many expected.
