Craig and Sean welcome John Buccigross from ESPN to discuss the new NHL season and ESPN's coverage, as the network gets set to be a rights holder for the NHL again. The guys discuss the NHL players media tour, the healthy rivalry between ESPN and TNT and their hockey coverage, what Mark Messier and Chris Chelios will be like as studio analysts and if Alex Ovechkin can break Wayne Gretzky's all time goal scoring record. 

Plus the guys talk about the Rangers announcement to retire Henrik Lundqvist's jersey, and the work ahead for Doug Armstrong and the St. Louis Blues after he signs a 5 year extension to manage the Blues.
