New York Rangers eliminated in 1st round after aggressive trade deadline, Matthew Tkachuk moves the needle more than Connor McDavid on U.S. TV and Colby Armstrong embracing opportunity with TNT

This week on The Athletic Hockey Show USA, Craig and Sean talk about the New York Rangers elimination from the Stanley Cup playoffs, and how the blue shirts trade deadline acquisitions weren't a factor at all in the series with New Jersey. The guys discuss the second round and the fact that US TV probably isn't salivating over teams from Seattle, Florida, Carolina, New Jersey, Toronto and Edmonton in the final eight, and we ask, who moves the meedle more on US television, Connor McDavid or Matthew Tkachuk? Former NHL'er Colby Armstrong stops by to discuss his role with TNT, working in studio with Biz Nasty, Anson Carter, Liam McHugh and Henrik Lunqvist and teaching the game to new hockey fans south of the border. Plus Colby looks ahead to the Matthew Tkachuk factor vs Toronto and Arm Dog's opportunity to work between the benches in the Carolina/New Jersey series. Subscribe to The Athletic Hockey Show on YouTube: http://youtube.com/@theathletichockeyshowGet a 1-year subscription to The Athletic for just $1 a month when you visit http://theathletic.com/hockeyshowRight now, Nuts.com is offering new customers a free gift with purchase and free shipping on orders of $29 or more at http://Nuts.com/hockey23Upgrade your closet with Rhone and use code NHLSHOW to save 20% at https://www.rhone.com/nhlshowGo to http://dave.com/nhlshow to sign up for an ExtraCash account and get up to $500 instantly!
