Brendon and Ronnie return again with the rest of The Athletic's Salary Cap Era NHL Franchise Rankings. The list finishes strong by celebrating every Stanley Cup winner since the era started. Included are some of Brendon's favorite teams, the teams of a couple of all-time generational players, and two teams who, despite their rankings, have arguably failed to live up to expectations... Along the way, Brendon regales us with an explanation of the Butterfly Stance in goaltending and offers up a Bar Trivia Night freebie. Ronnie checks in with the show's choices for underdog NFL teams, and remembers the weirdest things about corporations sponsoring sports venues.

What is Why Yes, We're Friends?
Brendon Wong and Ronnie Sullivan like some rival teams, and that's OK! They're here to talk it out anyway. Join them for conversations that are mostly sporty, but anything goes. Choose adhesive over solvents, tape over knives, cash over cards. Why Yes, We're Friends. Thanks for asking!
