Some might claim that this on-ice quote from Zac Rinaldo tonight is everything that’s wrong with the NHL these days. No respect amongst players, no regard for head injuries, etc. I’m as sensitive to concussions and head injuries as the next person, but this trash talk from Rinaldo to Phil Kessel off the opening draw…

The Guys are joined by the one and only Kurt R. (we’re sorry) this week to discuss Terrance Amorosa, the Jeff Skinner trade, and John Vanbiesbrouck. The trio also answer some listener questions and talk about the bright future of the Ottawa Senators. It’s also important to remember during this episode that the Philadelphia Eagles,…
