The topics discussed are the overall thoughts on the New York Rangers regular season, predictions for the major award winners in the NHL for the season, Stanley Cup Playoffs first round playoff predictions, overall playoff bracket predictions and breakdowns, and a lot of tangents, stupidity, and cursing! We even bring up the great draft the New York Jets had as well as Mike having one last meltdown over his fantasy hockey season!  Hope you enjoy!
