"I’ll team up with Arthur Staple to bring readers comprehensive coverage of hockey in the metro area, and I’ll also work on national features. With the Rangers, Devils, Islanders, and the league office all in New York City or a short commute away, this is a place with endless potential for stories"

Quick google search shows that he was writing for the avalanche up until a few weeks ago.

FWIW their fan base liked him but I suppose anyone is good when Adrian Dater exists.

Staple is an islander guy through and through and it showed. He did/does a good job covering up hat team but everything about the Rangers came through gritted teeth. Tossed a ton of nonsense out there regarding Laf and his “reputation” coming out of juniors when he had a rough pre season. That’s the kind of shit that he would never do for an Islander player.

Dizzy, foggy and feeling 'like I was a corpse': Inside Bowen Byram's harrowing first year with the Avalanche

Byram dealt with two concussions, COVID-19 and vertigo during his first months as an NHL player. Now he's facing another concussion.

theathletic.com

Good read from Peter about Bowen Byram's concussion history and recovery process.

Cant help but compare it to Chytil's ongoing issue. Byram has played every game this season for the Avs. Hopefully Chytil will have the same future with the Rangers

I have an Athletic subscription and read most of their hockey stuff. Baugh is a very good writer on the merits.

I pay for The Athletic and would prefer a dedicated Rangers beat reporter. Where is Carpy when you need him?

Carp was a disgrace at the Athletic. I was a fan of his back when, but he really lost his fastball.
