Live from the Blue Seats - A NY Rangers Podcast

Our NYR Christmas wish lists featuring Russell Hartman

Season 2, Ep. 12

Becky and Rob are joined by BSB colleague Russ Hartman this week to discuss what's on their Christmas wish lists, both for the Rangers, and in life. As COVID-19 continues to wreak havoc, the NHL has chosen a brief pause ahead of its regularly scheduled holiday break, in hopes that enacting stricter protocols will get team-wide outbreaks under control. But is daily testing the best way forward?


The Rangers did play some games last week, so the gang discusses those too. Why did Friday's loss to Vegas leave such a sour taste in everyone's mouth, even though it was a point earned against a good team? Plus, fan questions with a holiday twist.
