Spring Cleaning – Seattle KrakenThe Seattle Kraken entered the 2025-26 season with modest expectations and once again fell short of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. Despite an encouraging start and stretches of strong play, extended losing streaks, inconsistent offense, and limited development from several young forwards kept Seattle stuck in the middle of the Western Conference. Neil Smith and Vic Morren examine the front-office transition from Ron Francis to Jason Botterill, the organization's revolving door behind the bench, and why the Kraken may still be several years away from becoming a true contender.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Kraken are eliminated from playoff contention on April 11 after missing the postseason for the fourth time in their first five NHL seasons. Seattle's only playoff appearance remains its surprising second-year run to Game 7 of the second round.[00:00:25] Lane Lambert completes his first season behind the Seattle bench after replacing Dan Bylsma. The Kraken entered the year hoping offseason additions could provide more stability and help the club move closer to a Wild Card position.[00:00:45] Mason Marchment, Ryan Lindgren, and Frederik Gaudreau were among the veterans added to strengthen the roster, although Marchment was later traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets.[00:01:00] Seattle begins the season with an encouraging 11-5-5 record. The goaltending tandem of Philipp Grubauer and Joey Daccord also performs better than expected and gives the team a chance to compete early.[00:01:20] The positive start quickly disappears during a damaging 1-9-1 stretch between mid-November and mid-December. Although Seattle responds with an 8-0-2 run, the club never finds lasting consistency.[00:01:40] The Kraken suffer at least three consecutive regulation losses on six separate occasions. Those repeated slides prevent the team from building momentum or remaining firmly involved in the playoff race.[00:02:00] Scoring remains one of Seattle's biggest weaknesses. The Kraken finish among the NHL's lowest-scoring teams and fail to receive the expected growth from several important forwards.[00:02:20] Jared McCann has not replicated the 40-goal season he produced in 2022-23. Matty Beniers appears to have settled into the range of a 50-point player rather than developing into a dominant first-line center.[00:02:40] Shane Wright also continues to fall short of expectations attached to his high draft position. His limited progress becomes another major concern for an organization that needs its young players to drive the next stage of growth.[00:03:00] The conversation turns to Seattle's leadership transition. Ron Francis, the franchise's original general manager, is departing after previously moving into the role of team president.[00:03:20] Jason Botterill now assumes complete control of hockey operations. Neil questions the organization's direction and notes that Botterill's previous tenure as general manager of the Buffalo Sabres produced mixed results.[00:03:45] Seattle's constant coaching changes also come under scrutiny. The franchise has moved from Dave Hakstol to Dan Bylsma and now Lane Lambert, yet no coach has been able to create sustained success.[00:04:10] The Kraken's lone breakthrough came during their second season, when they defeated the defending champion Colorado Avalanche before pushing the Dallas Stars to seven games in the second round.[00:04:30] Botterill enters the 2026 NHL Draft with eight selections, including two first-round picks. Seattle owns its original selection and the pick acquired from Tampa Bay in the Oliver Bjorkstrand trade.[00:04:50] The Kraken also hold multiple selections in the fourth and seventh rounds, giving the organization additional opportunities to strengthen a prospect system that must produce more impact players.[00:05:10] Seattle projects to have approximately $4.3 million in cap space. That provides some flexibility, but likely not enough to completely reshape the roster through free agency.[00:05:30] Unrestricted free agents include Jaden Schwartz, Eeli Tolvanen, trade-deadline acquisition Bobby McMann, and original Kraken defenseman Jamie Oleksiak.[00:05:55] Vic does not expect Seattle to be significantly better next season. The Kraken may not be a bottom-tier team, but the roster currently appears trapped between rebuilding and legitimate playoff contention.[00:06:20] Neil believes Seattle will remain around the Wild Card conversation, but major offseason work is required to move the organization higher in the standings.[00:06:40] The episode concludes with uncertainty surrounding the Kraken's immediate future. With a new decision-maker, another head coach, limited scoring, and several unresolved roster questions, Seattle must establish a clear organizational direction before it can become a consistent playoff team.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we chat with Charlie Botterill. Charlie's long been one of the most exciting young names in HYROX, and his recent results - including a 54-minute Pro time - have put him firmly in the Elite field, both in singles and doubles.

Carlos Sainz se ongeluk met sy Ford Raptor tydens die Dakar het Sondag die nuus gehaal. Dit het plaasgevind tydens die veelgevreesde 48-uur Chrono-sneltrajek wat in wese twee sneltrajekte in een is en oor opeenvolgende dae strek, maar sonder die voordeel van tegniese hulp tussenin. Toyota Gazoo Racing se Guy Botterill was kort op sy hakke en het berg geklim om sein te kry en ‘n stemnota via WhatsApp te stuur.

In this episode of the Rox Lyfe podcast we chat with Charlie Botterill. This was recorded just a few days after Charlie won the mens open at HYROX Rotterdam in a time of 59:35. A few weeks prior to that he ran the second fastest mens pro doubles time ever - along with Jake Williamson who has also been on this pod – in a time of 51:51. Charlie is only 22 but is an amazing athlete and has quite a back story. We talk about his sporting past – including his time as a footballer and a pro cyclist living in France, we talk about his battle with depression after suffering an injury in football, as well as how he struggled with an eating disorder for many years before going to Uni. We get into some detail about the book he's writing, his training, his racing in HYROX, the time he ran a marathon around Wembley stadium, some of his running numbers and the amazing numbers he used to be able to achieve on the bike, we talk about his mindset in a race and lots lots more. It was a great chat, with an impressive young athlete who seemingly has a very mature head on him and a great future in the sport of HYROX.
Where are oil and gas prices going, and why. That's the focus of this wide-ranging interview I had with Andrew Botterill, head of Deloitte's chemicals and oil and gas industry vertical. Deloitte produces a regular price forecast for oil and gas, and we provide the context, covering the turmoil and volatility in global markets, heavily influenced by geopolitical conflicts and policy shifts. We touch on the adoption of sustainable practices, including hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuels. Policy moves, such as the Inflation Reduction Act, create both challenges and opportunities in the U.S., but with ramifications globally, particularly from major consuming geographies, incuding the EU and Asia. We also discuss the future of energy demand in growth economies like India and continental Africa, highlighting the complex relationship between advancing technology and addressing energy poverty. Digital technology plays a key role in enhancing cost efficiency, resilience, and safety within the industry, setting the stage for a more sustainable and flexible energy landscape.

It's a day that ends in "Y" so that means there's more to the GM search! Hunter starts the show by discussing Jason Botterill's candidacy and why he suddenly got a lot of love from two separate media outlets. He looks at the pros and cons of Botterill's case to be the GM and analyzes why he wouldn't be at the top of his list. However, he gives a couple of reasons why it can work since he definitely wouldn't be the worst choice out there. After that, he dives into Pierre Lebrun's latest rumblings and looks at a few new names he dropped in his article that got Zoom interviews with Fenway Sports Group. Who will likely get a second interview with FSG? Is the search likely to end in the next couple of weeks? Finally, he does a Western Conference and Eastern Conference FInal preview and gives his predictions as to who will play in the Stanley Cup Final in just a couple of weeks.

On Minnesota Now this season, we're finding joy in winter with our series “Winter Play.” We are sharing stories about what brings Minnesotans delight during these long, snowy and freezing winter months.

He's the board president of the Dakota Curling Club in Lakeville. Botterill joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer to talk about his love of the sport and how curious new curlers can get started. Use the audio player above to listen to the full conversation. Subscribe to the Minnesota Now podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

After losing his business to the economic turndown in 2008, Nigel wanted to help other franchisees prepare for challenging times through recession training. His team mistakenly sent a video meant for the franchisees to the franchisees' customers. After seeing the learning gap and ‘appetite' of the email recipients, Nigel offered training for the customers of the franchisees. The Entrepreneurs Circle now has over 1,000 members from all over the world who are living more fulfilled, more comfortable, and happier lives. [15:14] Nigel's Second Proudest Moment All businesses need a team that works together towards the same goal. The biggest challenge is building and keeping the team. Nigel is grateful and proud that he could do this with his team at Entrepreneurs Circle. His team's dedication energises and inspires him. [19:31] Making the Most Out of Life Attack every day with gusto and find things that energise you. Life is too short to spend it doing things that do not make you feel better about yourself. Always be prepared so you can overcome adversity, including those that are not of your own doing. Nigel used to work for large corporations and abide by policies and decisions that did not align with him. Having his own business allowed him to ‘do things the right way.' Money will flow if your business is doing the right thing. [22:58] Nigel's Third Proudest Moment In 2015, Nigel's business lost £600,000 to a ‘systematic management of accounts and bookkeeping.' This forced him to take the Entrepreneurs Circle to a Creditors Voluntary Agreement (CVA). CVAs often end in the company closing and people losing money. However, with hard work, Nigel cleared the CVA a year early. Nigel considers the exit certificate as his single proudest moment as a business owner. He displays the exit certificate in his office as a reminder of his triumph. [31:42] Lessons from Major Adversities Major adversities will change you for the better and teach you the biggest lessons. Doing the right thing and using a values-driven approach to any adversity will create trust between you and your clients. The only way out is through. No matter how empathetic you are, you can never understand a situation as well as somebody who experienced it. [33:22] Business and Numbers You can never avoid numbers as a business owner. Any business owner can learn to drive their numbers with focus and guidance. [34:58] Nigel's Secret to Success The secret to success all comes down to how you use your time. People have built businesses bigger than themselves by spending time on the right things. Get away from the daily tasks and work on moving the business forward. Mistakes are normal. Just make sure to spend enough time on the things that will make a difference. Nigel uses the first 90 minutes of his day to do things that will make his business more successful and move him and his family to where he wants it to be. 5 Powerful Quotes [16:11] ‘There's not a business that's traded that can't generate an extra 10 or 12 grand a margin in the next 12 months if the business owner really wants to do it.' [20:12] ‘Life is really short to spend it doing things that don't make you feel better about yourself.' [22:34] ‘[When] you do the right things, the money then flows.' [31:27] ‘There are many things in life that impact you and shape you, and we are who we are and what we are to a large extent because of [these things].' [32:43] ‘No matter how empathetic you are or how much you try, if you've never actually had to face the situation, you can never understand it quite as well as somebody that has gone through it.'

Pam Botterill is an Indigenous woman from the Wei Wai Kum First Nation in Campbell River BC, who was adopted at the age of 9 months and was raised by a non-Indigenous family in Powell River, BC. Pam describes her experience of adoption as a good-news story. With an interesting connection between the Celtic music, she was raised with, and the drumming of her indigenous roots, Pam identifies a common denominator between the two. Recounting what it was like to meet her biological mother and some of her siblings for the first time, Pam underscores the value of community and belonging through adoption, and in her battle with cancer.
