It's FRIENDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 169 and if you ask me there's one way to deliver that sweet, sweet caffeine. The Rangers are rolling in first place, but the Islanders are beat up and stealing the Penguins' thunder in the hunt for a lottery pick. The Devils are up and down in Northwestern Canada but they were the first team to four wins and also were the first team to ever beat the Utah Hockey Club, so it's not all bad. Olivia Rodrigo faces off with Tate McRea in the Weekly WTF Righteous Babe Contest - Algorithm Competition. And on the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November I can't think of anything more important to weigh in on. So come down the rabbit hole with us on FREINDS AND RIVALS EPISODE 169!
