Episode 97 is the Matt Gilroy Episode, and Joe and Eric revisit Gilroy's famously wooden commercial cameo before running through his actual Rangers résumé (142 games over three seasons, plus stops in Tampa, Florida, and Ottawa). The Rangers' new sports performance hires—Matt Price, Mike Wagner, Matt Hawkey, and the additions to the training staff—turn into a longer conversation about Quentin Dolan's growing footprint in the organization and whether James Dolan is setting up to eventually hand him the team. Adam Fox getting ranked 13th among NHL defensemen by NHL.com annoys Joe and Eric greatly, and a mailbag question about Will Cuylle, Noah Laba, and Gabe Perreault's next contracts turns into a real case for locking up Perreault now, before the offer-sheet market catches up to him. Plus: Your questions that lead to a debate about menswear. Give it a listen!
