No time for banter (except… all the banter). We break the format for a very special AudPod: game recaps, game previews, AND an interview with the one and only Hunter Brzustewicz (yes, that Hunter Brzustewicz). Recaps include: a 5-2 win over London where Sam O’Reilly basically did everything (even shorthanded, even empty net… relax), the Rangers’ 2000th franchise win vs Kingston (dominant second period, dominant everything), a massive 2–0 statement win in Ottawa in a full-on goalie duel, and a frustrating shootout loss in Peterborough where the Rangers outshot them hard but went 0-for-5 on the power play. We also hit the AudPod “curse” (Weston Cameron commits to UMass Amherst), preview a huge week vs Windsor and trips to Erie and Guelph (trap game alert + parking discourse returns), talk Jackson Parsons being back in the AHL, and shout out alumni Reid Valade lighting up U SPORTS with 48 points. Then we toss it to the Hunter interview (technical difficulties included, because of course).
