Finally some sanity in Hockey coverage

After winning a couple of Vezinas with the perennially inept Blue jackets and cracking the top tier of all time wins playing for weak teams, I was thrilled you guys agree with Bobrovsky being a Hall of Famer. I especially love that he came up as a rookie with the always in search of an elite goalie Flyers. I also love the insights into NHL stories that are usually hidden in national coverage. Thanks and keep up the great podcasting.

Also, can these guys stop talking over each other? Good lord.
