Would you be able to put what radio station the rangers are on for each game. It seems like every game it changes because something is always on 1050. Last game was 1130 and today is 970 or something like that. So if you could incorporate that into your preview that would be awesome.

Been following this blow for what has to be 2 years now (since drury and gomez signed) and I visit it every day, even during the offseason. There is nothing better.

Thanks

Great idea. I'll be sure to add the radio coverage from now on.
