It’s an emergency podcast with Peter and Pat to discuss the acquisition of Nate Schmidt by the Vegas Golden Knights as part of the expansion draft. Fun.
Also discussed: the Baltimore Orioles bullpen and rec league players with white gloves.

So… it’s been a big last few days in our little hockey world. Ian and I got together to discuss the Crosby/Niskanen hit and the Caps-Pens series in general. We give our rundown of Caps personnel in the postseason, and I’ll tell you why the NHL is bad.

I love Steve Dangle and Steve Dangle loves RMNB. My favorite team is the Washington Capitals and Steve’s favorite team is the Toronto Maple Leafs. Oh god. The next two weeks are going to suck, aren’t they?
Monday afternoon, after Steve drank a liter of coffee and I chugged a Red Bull, we spoke somewhat coherently — for 90 minutes to be exact — about the Capitals and Leafs’ first-round playoff series, which begins Thursday at Verizon Center.
We also made a playoff bet that Steve’s really going to regret.
United Arab Emirates’ national team player and talented stickhandler Fatima Al Ali returned home to Abu Dhabi a week ago after a whirlwind trip to Washington DC.
In an interview, I conducted with Fatima Thursday, the inspiring female hockey player was still clearly in the afterglow of meeting her favorite NHL player, Alex Ovechkin, and skating with her favorite NHL team, the Washington Capitals.
“Literally every day I was freaking out,” Fatima said.
The RMNB Podcast is back after a long holiday hiatus and we’re here once again to talk about the important issues facing our favorite hockey team like Who will win the new season of The Bachelor?
Tuesday night, former Capital Andrew Gordon and I casted another pod and we kinda went off topic. Sure, we discussed the bonkers Caps-Penguins 8-7 (OT) game, what the Caps should do at the trade deadline, and if a hockey team can actually peak at the wrong time. We even answered a bunch of reader questions.
But we also talked about Gordo’s surprisingly epic trip to the World Darts Championship in London, England, which he called the “Greatest Sporting Championship.” I didn’t believe him either until he showed me the below video.
The RMNB Podcast is back after a three-week hiatus and we’re here to talk about all the important issues facing our new world like Why did Nintendo make so few NES Classics?
Wednesday night, literally 120 minutes before the Caps had their most emphatic victory of the season, former Capital Andrew Gordon and myself chatted about all the latest Caps gossip. But we also jumped head first into some other interesting topics like how angry do NHL coaches get behind the scenes (AKA do they really throw chairs?), how much money do NHL players actually make after taxes/agent fees/escrow, and what it takes to achieve maximum line chemistry.
And if you don’t care about any of that, we talk about President-elect Donald Trump. Hoooo boy.
Monday afternoon, Andrew Gordon and I plugged in our semi-professional microphones and baked up another fresh RMNB Podcast. Joining us on the show this week was special guest: Capitals defenseman Taylor Chorney.
The articulate and funny Chorney spoke to us about his long and winding road to the NHL, his best friend on the team, what the Caps Halloween Party was like, his favorite music, playing at North Dakota with TJ Oshie, why no one can walk on the Caps logo in the locker room, being a #CapsDad, and if he’s heard of the Chorn Horn.
You’re not going to want to miss this episode.
The RMNB Podcast is back for a new season and it’s 100x more Swedish.
It’s not actually about gardening and pornography, but those are two topics on our minds this week. Really, Ian and I got together to talk about our fondest memories of beloved outgoing Capitals players like Mike Weber.

Ian and I got together on Saturday night instead of having social lives. We have assembled for you an hour and change of hockey chat. Maybe you can listen to it while you run errands today or while you’re stuck in traffic on Monday morning.
If you’re sick of us (and at this point, who isn’t?), we were joined by Katie Brown of District Sports Page to chat about the upcoming trade deadline. We also answered almost all your questions and accusations from Saturday afternoon and then we really went off the rails.
The RMNB Podcast is on iTunes. If you enjoy it, please subscribe and rate us.
