Blueshirt Bandwidth #83: LIVE from Rangers Lottery Miseryville

Episode 83 of Blueshirt Bandwidth is the first-ever live stream, and Eric and Joe spend the first 25 minutes watching the Rangers fall to fifth overall in the NHL draft lottery in real time—the mathematically worst-case scenario—while Toronto somehow wins the right to draft Gavin McKenna. Joe's heart rate hits 140 beats a minute, the lottery may or may not have been rigged, and the long argument about whether Caleb Malhotra makes it to fifth begins immediately. Hartford Wolf Pack correspondent Keegan Jarvis joins to walk through a 32nd-place season, the firing of Grant Potulny's and his entire coaching staff, the Scott Morrow situation, why Brett Berard's stock cratered, why Adam Sokora and Jaroslav Chmelar look like real NHL players, and why Dylan Garand is ready to back up Igor Shesterkin next year. Then it's the Tanner Glass promotion (Eric and Joe agree it's not about Tanner Glass the player), the Toronto presser disaster with Steve Simmons and new GM John Chayka, a Mount Rushmore of New York sports broadcasters that somehow includes Doc Emrick, and whether John Cooper should actually be on the hot seat in Tampa. Give it a listen!
