Summary

Pete Blackburn joins the show to help construct this year's version of the annual Watchability Rankings. We discuss what makes a team watchable, and what we prioritize when tuning into a game, before ranking all 32 teams in the league from top to bottom based on that criteria. Topics include: Whether the Coyotes are so bad that they're good Why you need to give the Blues a second chance What makes the Ducks this year's 'Midnight Rider' Fear of missing out on Connor McDavid's latest highlight Enjoying Alex Ovechkin chasing history Teams we struggled to rank because of injuries The novelty of the Kraken vs. their actual performance Young teams we want to get in on early Established teams we know what we're getting from If you haven't done so yet, please take a minute to leave a rating and review for the show. Smash that 5-star button. Each one counts, and helps us out greatly. If you're feeling extra generous, you can also leave a little note about why you recommend people check the PDOcast out.
