Listen to Episode 9 of ‘Up In The Blue Seats’: What It Was Like to Face Gretzky feat. Chris Kotsopoulos

It’s Thursday, which means a brand-new episode of the “Up In The Blue Seats” podcast with Rangers great Ron Duguay. Ron and I open the show honoring Kobe and Gianna Bryant and all the lives lost in the tragic helicopter accident. Doogie tells his story about the time he met Kobe in 1997, when they were both judges for the Miss Teen USA pageant. He talks about the humble man Kobe was and the legacy he leaves behind.

Duguay compares one of the best NBA players ever in Kobe to the best player in NHL history, Wayne Gretzky.
