Your Morning Jed: The Nanny and a Ranger

No, my clock is not broken. I know it's the afternoon. Moving on...

A few weeks back, I stumbled across another old TV show that had a hockey-related theme to one of its episodes. This time it was the '90s CBS sitcom, The Nanny. The episode is entitled "The Hockey Show" and the basic synopsis revolves around the main character, Fran Fine, dating a New York Ranger and ultimately jinxing him and his game. A little Jessica Simpson/Tony Romo before their time, perhaps?

I found the entire episode online but YouTube won't allow me to embed it so follow the links below if you'd like to watch it. Of note: former New York Ranger Ron Greschner makes a guest appearance (as himself) at the start of part 3.

Part One
Part Two
Part Three

Thought this was apropos since the Predators set off on their East Coast road trip today and will face off against the Rangers Wednesday night. Jed Ortmeyer (the namesake of this feature) was a quite beloved former New York Ranger so, again, it seemed quite fitting.

Happy Monday!
