Every year, during the Stanley Cup playoffs, the majority of WFAN hosts show up painfully deficient in hockey knowledge, unless knowing that John Vanbiesbrouck's nickname is "Beezer" counts.
The line of Jason Arnott, Patrik Elias and Petr Sykora - all in their prime - should be celebrated almost daily on WFAN for their brilliant, telepathic passing, especially from in deep, where it gets crowded.
WFAN hosts, had they paid some attention, might have even encouraged non-hockey fans to take a peek at them.

 The Media Drop: WFAN finally hitting the 'net
A few days ago, I started hearing that 660AM WFAN out of New York City would be streaming live over the Internet soon, and as it turns out, it's true.
On Friday, I received an email from the station's marketing deparment stating that the streaming would go live at 3pm on Tuesday, April 11, where the "Mike & The Mad Dog" show would be broadcast while the New York Mets game would be played over the actual airwaves.
I'm psyched mostly that the "Imus in the Morning" show is going to be over the 'net now, because my office location isn't exactly getting me great AM reception, depriving me of my WFAN fix for the day.
