After a bad 3-2 home loss to the San Jose Sharks, the Rangers inexplicably follow it up with another Madison Square Garden clunker, this time a 5-1 defeat to the Columbus Blue Jackets. Questioning the decision to start Jaroslav Halak in this one, especially with two back-to-backs next on the schedule. Calling out the first line of Chris Kreider, Mika Zibanejad and Kaapo Kakko, who were invisible. Keeping fingers crossed for Filip Chytil, who was lost with an injury on his first shift. Why Ryan Reaves should be the healthy scratch against the Colorado Avalanche. Why we'll all be feeling much better with a win against the Avs.

Episode 692. Intro song is "Leave the Lights On" by Passafire.
