Last night the New York Rangers earned a much needed regulation win vs. the Washington Capitals in primetime on ESPN, and I am sure there was a lot said about how the team had been playing, how they looked during the evening, how the deadline acquisitions have been fitting in. I say I am sure, because I wasn’t watching the main broadcast, instead I watched two periods of the “NHL Big City Greens Classic” with my nephew, and the third period solo once he had to go to bed. It was an experience, a combination of some silly stuff, some wackiness, some predictable humor, some great hockey, and overall great entertainment which the league certainly needs to lean into going forward.
