Matvei Michkov: That Guy Yells
2026/11/10
The Philadelphia Flyers' embattled young star got into a screaming match with teammate Nick Seeler during a game and it was fascinating to watch. We discuss what in the hell is going on in Philly and are joined by Charlie O'Connor of PHLY Sports for insight into what went on and where things stand with Michkov, Tocchet and the team. Plus, the Sharks won and potentially proved the effectiveness of players-only meetings, tonight is what should have been Hellebuyck's return to Winnipeg, and mascots are getting naked together.

Internal Data Says Hellebuyck Doesn't Want the Smoke
2026/11/09
The New Jersey Devils announced that Connor Hellebuyck will NOT start in his highly anticipated return to Winnipeg, in a move that is apparently out of the net-minder's hands. We express our disappointment, dole out blame, and react to a bewildering move from Devils GM Sunny Mehta and company. Plus, the Blackhawks held a players-only meeting as Chicago and San Jose continue to compete for the most disappointing seasons so far. We are also joined by Shayna Goldman to discuss all the big story lines from across the NHL.

Who's Got It Worse Than Us? Nobody!
2026/11/05
The brutal start to the Blackhawks and Sharks' respective seasons has continued, and the noise surrounding the teams has only gotten louder. We discuss Paul Bissonnette's harsh criticism of Jeff Blashill's Blackhawks and a reported players-only meeting for the Sharks. Plus, WillMack went to the White House, the IIHF isn't letting women dress themselves, and we're joined by Steve "Petey" Peters to discuss various storylines from across the league.

We Just Witnessed A Historic Meltdown
2026/11/04
The Montreal Canadiens managed to pull off one of the greatest collapses ever, giving up a 4-0 lead to the Winnipeg Jets with under 3 minutes to go before eventually losing in OT (all while debuting their Hometown Remix jerseys). We discuss the Habs' embarrassing night, more HTR debuts, the state of international hockey and Connor Hellebuyck's letter to Jets fans. We also introduce new rules to the NHL for our new political climate.

The Hometown Remix Jerseys Are Cursed
2026/11/03
After the NHL-wide reveal yesterday, three teams debuted their new Hometown Remix in-game... and all three lost. We discuss how these new uniforms looked in their first uses and whether the whole line of jerseys might just be bad luck. Plus, the Chicago Blackhawks are embracing internal data, some countries are still rejecting Russia's return to international hockey and the San Jose Sharks don't look like they are having fun at all.

Nikita Kucherov's Trade Request Has Left Us Stunned
2026/10/31
Nikita Kucherov has informed the Tampa Bay Lightning he won't be re-signing with them & has asked to be traded. It's a stunning development for the league's reigning MVP, so we try to digest the news & brainstorm some trade destinations for Kucherov and the Lightning.

Is Dylan Larkin Finally Getting Traded? (ft. Sam Dickinson and Michael Misa)
2026/10/29
The Detroit Red Wings appear to be healthy scratching their former captain as reports suggest that trade talks around him are beginning to intensify. We discuss the latest on the Larkin situation and where he might finally move on to. Plus, Bill Guerin wants you to know he's definitely not desperate to keep Quinn Hughes, Devin Cooley got injured and we give our thoughts on a wild proposed Kings-Canucks trade. We are also joined by San Jose Sharks young stars Sam Dickinson and Michael Misa to discuss their lives as teammates and, more importantly, roommates.

BONUS: Reacting to Connor Hellebuyck Being Traded to the New Jersey Devils
2026/10/23
The Connor Hellebuyck trade drama has finally come to an end, with the Winnipeg Jets trading their Hart-winning goalie to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for a combination of players and draft picks. We discuss what this means for the players and teams involved, the teams who missed out on Hellebuyck, and what this may mean for a potential Quinn Hughes move to New Jersey.
