Brendon and Ronnie are getting ready for the new NHL season by reading a list of franchise rankings compiled by The Athletic. In this first part, they cover the bottom 15 franchises. Along the way, the fellas recall the 2004 lockout that cancelled an entire season, try to make sense of how there are two different franchises with histories tied to the name "Winnipeg Jets," and talk about the impact and loss of Johnny Gaudreau. Brendon tells us all who the Macaroni Rascals are and Ronnie says something nice about the Philadelphia Flyers. Ew.

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!
