The Enemy: Blueshirt Banter
Both the Leafs and Rangers are playing on the back half of a back-to-back. Leafs are on a three game win streak while the Rangers have won eight straight. The Rangers are hot. They also don't like wearing shirts.Here are some pictures to demonstrate how hot they are (helpfully curated by Species):
