Rangers Are SO Back?! Igor Makes History + NHL Week 1
THE RANGERS HAVE A GOALIE WHO SCORES GOALS. WE REPEAT: THE GOALIE SCORED A GOAL.
The hockey season is officially underway, and Double D-Fense has A LOT to say.
We’re kicking things off with the New York Rangers, who apparently decided their home opener needed a little history. We’re breaking down that AMAZING win, Igor Shesterkin’s historic goalie goal (yes, THAT happened), and whether the Rangers are giving us actual reasons to be optimistic… or if we’re once again setting ourselves up for emotional damage. 💙❤️
Then we’re taking a lap around the NHL to talk about everything that’s caught our attention during Week 1 — the surprises, the drama, the teams looking scary good, and the teams already making us ask, “Uhhh… you good?”
And because we believe women can, in fact, talk about more than one hockey league at a time…
👩🦰🏒 PWHL UPDATE! We’re checking in on the women’s game as the PWHL gets ready for another huge season, with plenty to be excited about heading into the new year.
So grab your jersey, pour yourself something strong, and D-FENSE with us as we talk Rangers, NHL chaos, PWHL news, and all the hockey opinions you didn't ask for but definitely need. 😏
Double D-Fense: because hockey is better when you have two opinions, zero chill, and absolutely no interest in keeping them to ourselves.

Is Preseason Actually Worth It?! Plus: WTF Are These New NHL Rules?
Hockey is officially back—and naturally, things are already getting weird. 🏒
On this episode of Double D-Fense, we’re breaking down the NHL preseason and asking the question every fan is thinking: is it actually worth it? With players risking injury before a single regular-season point is on the line, we look at some of the biggest preseason injuries and debate whether those exhibition games are necessary—or just an expensive way to get hurt.
We’re also talking suspensions and discipline from around the league, plus some of the wildest new NHL rules for the 2026–27 season.
Basically: hockey is back, nobody knows all the rules yet, and we have questions. 😂
Plus: our takes, our complaints, and whatever NHL chaos happens to find us this week.
