Podcasts about Bouchard

Let's do this! The Cult of Hockey podcast. By the Faithful and for the Faithful. Today Kurt Leavins of the Edmonton Journal digs into the Edmonton Oilers 4-1 win over the Red Wings of Buffalo Game Overview: The Oilers celebrated a satisfying victory, with the team showcasing a solid performance against the Detroit Red Wings. David and Kurt noted that the game felt secure once the Oilers netted their third goal, with the team effectively shutting down any potential threats from their opponents. The hosts emphasized the importance of managing fatigue, especially during back-to-back games, which can significantly affect player performance. Zach Hyman's Comeback: One of the standout performances in the game came from Zach Hyman, who scored a hat trick. Kurt pointed out that Hyman's recent struggles stemmed from a wrist injury sustained during the playoffs last year, which raised concerns about his ability to return to form. However, his performance in this game suggested that he might be regaining his previous prowess. David recalled a moment from a prior game where Hyman demonstrated improved wrist strength, hinting that he could be back to his old self. Hyman's contributions are crucial for the Oilers, especially as the team looks to enhance its scoring depth. The Importance of Team Dynamics: David and Kurt highlighted the synergy between Hyman, Connor McDavid, and Leon Draisaitl, noting how their on-ice chemistry resulted in beautiful plays. One example discussed was Hyman's first goal, which was set up by a remarkable pass from McDavid, demonstrating the patience and vision that elite players possess. This discussion underscored the significance of teamwork and communication in achieving success on the ice. Evan Bouchard's Performance: The podcast also touched on Evan Bouchard's contributions and the criticisms he faces regarding his defensive skills. While both hosts acknowledged his offensive talent, they agreed that Bouchard needs to improve his defensive play, particularly during crucial moments. David recounted a story from Gary Galley about Ray Bourque, emphasizing that great players often take risks to make exceptional plays, which can lead to turnovers. This analogy served to frame the discussion about Bouchard, suggesting that while he may have defensive lapses, his offensive capabilities are invaluable. Conclusion: The Oilers' recent victory showcased not only individual brilliance but also the importance of teamwork and resilience. Zach Hyman's return to form is a promising sign for the team, as is the continued excellence of McDavid and Draisaitl. Additionally, while Bouchard's defensive play may need refinement, his offensive contributions are vital for the team's success. As the season progresses, monitoring these players' performances will be crucial for the Oilers' aspirations.

Gosh darn that sucked! Leave it to the Edmonton Oilers to make the Buffalo Sabres look like a relevant team… We start today's show recapping last night's overtime loss.

What was the key moment, what the super stat and who were the fourth and 38th stars…   To cap off hour one, we dove into the Advents Calendars from Wayne's Sports Cards & Collectables and discussed if this is who Evan Bouchard will always be…

We're doing things a little in the second hour today. Noodles can't join until the middle of the hour, so we started with MMMMMM That's Good presented by The Italian Centre Shop to discuss the Edmonton Elks signing Cody Fajardo yesterday.   Then we dipped into Free Advice for Damon Bunting.

He gave his initial thoughts on last night's game. Starting with Bouchard then touching on Skinner. He then gave some love to Podkolzin. Noodles finished with his thoughts on why the Sabres should be better and he also touched on the dating question we got earlier.   To finish hour two we discussed more Evan Bouchard.

Kass and Gager will weigh in. Then it's on to tonight, where Edmonton looks for some revenge on the Buffalo Sabres. The boys will run through the expected lines, what to watch for, key matchups, and everything you need to know heading into this one.   To the Olympics, Dusty asks Kass and Gager about the possibility of Evan Bouchard making Team Canada for 2026.

Let's do this! The Cult of Hockey podcast. By the Faithful and for the Faithful. Today Kurt Leavins of the Edmonton Journal digs into the Edmonton Oilers 8-3 loss to the Stars of Dallas. The Edmonton Oilers faced another challenging night on the ice, suffering a disheartening 8-3 defeat against the Dallas Stars. In this episode of the Cult of Hockey podcast, hosts David Staples and Kurt Levin dissect the game, highlighting both the bright spots and the glaring issues that continue to plague the team. The podcast opens with David sharing his recent skiing experience at Sunshine, drawing a parallel to the Oilers' performance. Just as skiing in poor visibility can be a nightmare, the Oilers struggled to find their footing against the Stars. Kurt agrees, noting the team's inconsistency, especially after a grueling road trip where they managed to claw through tough games. Kurt highlights Connor Clattenburg as a standout player despite the loss. Clattenburg, who was called up from the minors, made an immediate impact with a heavy hit and later scored his first NHL goal. His celebration was infectious, bringing some much-needed excitement to a lackluster game. David echoes this sentiment, noting how Clattenburg's raw joy in scoring exemplifies why fans love the sport. The hosts emphasize that Clattenburg's performance raises questions about roster decisions moving forward. Jack Roslovic also received recognition for his skillful goal, showcasing his ability to capitalize on opportunities. His offensive instincts have made him a valuable asset, and his desire to shoot at the net is something the Oilers need more of from all players, especially their stars. Despite some bright spots, the conversation quickly shifts to the defensive struggles of the Oilers. Kurt expresses disappointment in the top defensive pairing of Bouchard and Ekholm, who faltered significantly compared to their previous game against Florida. Both players had crucial lapses that led to goals against, raising concerns about their consistency. David adds that these defensive issues reflect a larger problem within the team, where even the best players are not performing up to par defensively. The hosts delve into the need for players to take accountability for their defensive responsibilities. They discuss how star players like McDavid and Draisaitl often get caught in the wrong positions, either over-pursuing the puck or failing to engage defensively. This lack of awareness creates vulnerabilities that opposing teams exploit. David emphasizes the importance of a defensive mindset, especially in a league as competitive as the NHL. Conclusion: The Oilers are at a crossroads. With moments of brilliance from players like Clattenburg and Roslovic, there is hope for the season. However, the persistent defensive lapses must be addressed if the team hopes to contend for the playoffs. As Kurt aptly puts it, the Oilers need to rediscover their defensive identity to match their offensive talent. Key takeaways include the importance of player accountability, the need for a strong defensive foundation, and the bright future of promising young players.

The momentum in Canadian ETFs continues into the 11th month of the year. Despite Canada not being the most popular destination for global investors, the TSX has delivered standout performance, driven by a sector-heavy market - with materials and precious metals leading the charge. And beyond Canada, an interesting trend is emerging in the US: the rise of the so-called “anti-factor” theme - where companies that traditionally shouldn't be outperforming are, in fact, leading the way. So what does this mean for investors? How long could these trends last? And where does this leave those seeking diversification? Joining today's episode to unpack it all in this month's edition of the ETF Roundup is Fidelity Director of ETFs and Alternatives Strategy, Etienne Joncas Bouchard. Recorded on November 12, 2025. At Fidelity, our mission is to build a better future for Canadian investors and help them stay ahead.

In this episode of HALO Talks, industry veteran CJ Bouchard opens up to host Pete Moore about the realities of entrepreneurship in the fitness industry, sharing candid stories of risk, resilience, and what it really means to build from the ground up. From betting his savings on a fledgling franchise in North Carolina and initially making daily two-hour commutes, to pivoting and learning tough lessons about club size, site selection, and market expansion, CJ reveals how grit, adaptability, and a clear mission have fueled Excel Fitness's phenomenal growth. Planet Fitness (NYSE:PLNT) is one of the largest and fastest-growing operators of fitness centers in the U.S, and Excel Fitness Holdings is one of their largest franchisees currently operating 150+ clubs in Austin, Dallas/Ft Worth, Tulsa, Northwest Arkansas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Utah, Georgia, and Virginia. Their mission is to build a team culture and atmosphere constructed on trust, humility, and strong relationships, always leading by example and putting others first with the utmost integrity, dedication, and accountability. Pete and CJ also dive into how partnering with private equity has transformed the business, what it takes to be a successful operator in today's market, what to expect when working with a PE firm, and the importance of building a strong team and community-driven approach. CJ also shares the meaning behind his "Hope is not a strategy" tattoo, and why execution—not wishful thinking—remains his guiding principle. Whether you're a club owner, aspiring HALO sector entrepreneur, or curious about how major fitness brands expand, this episode is packed with actionable insights, real-world advice, and plenty of inspiration from one of the industry's top leaders. Key themes discussed Entrepreneurial journey and early struggles in fitness industry. Evolution and disruption of the Planet Fitness business model. Challenges involved in club building and expansion. The critical importance of location for a gym's success. Strategic growth: Acquisitions, private equity, and territory development. Leadership style: Clarity, vision, and execution over hope. A Few Takeaways: 1.Entrepreneurial Grit & Humble Beginnings: Bouchard started in the fitness industry as a personal trainer without a college degree, working in Connecticut's gym scene and grinding through tough times. He didn't take a paycheck for two years and put payroll on credit cards when launching his first Planet Fitness in North Carolina. Real entrepreneurship often means sacrifice, resilience, and relentless commitment. 2. Evolution from "Hardcore" Gyms to Disrupting the Market: CJ's transition from traditional gyms (Gold's, World Gym, etc.) to Planet Fitness highlights a change in business philosophy. It went from focusing on "results" to focusing on "access." He recognized Planet's disruptive model early on, betting on a concept that many were skeptical about and ultimately building one of the largest Planet Fitness area development companies in the country. 3. Importance of Site Selection and Operational Knowledge: Both Bouchard and Moore emphasized how crucial it is to understand the nuances of real estate, site selection, and the operational details of running clubs. The value of personally touring sites and knowing the history and layout of each location is essential. Software and reports can't replace firsthand experience. 4. Strategic Growth: Mergers, Acquisitions & Private Equity: Under CJ, Excel Fitness strategically expanded through acquiring clubs, merging with other operators, and partnering with private equity (Olympus Partners.) CJ shared how growth now includes both new club development and acquisitions of existing gyms (like Texas Family Fitness), always with an eye on preserving legacy and community as much as possible. 5. Culture, Team, and Values: CJ's leadership philosophy stresses execution, daily engagement in operations, and a moral compass focused on building communities through fitness. His tattoo "Hope Is Not a Strategy" clearly shows his belief in preparation and action, not relying on luck. He also spoke passionately about valuing long-term employees and creating opportunities for others in the organization.

I was told you get a job you hate, and that's life. I thought it was either do what you love and be broke, or sell your soul to make money.   Mimi's story is so similar. She didn't come from wealth. She grew up watching her parents fight about money, surrounded by scarcity and fear. But she made these massive mindset shifts that completely transformed her reality.    Now she's living in the Bahamas, married to her dream partner, and running a seven-figure business with Activations, a revolutionary audio app that's not meditation, not affirmations, it's activation. Over 700 guided visualizations paired with cinematic music designed to rewire your brain while you move through your day.   We dive into: ✨ How to rewire limiting beliefs around money and abundance

When Audrey-Anne Bouchard was a teenager, she found out she had a rare degenerative eye disease. Now, she creates immersive theatre performances for blind and partially sighted audiences, turning her experience living with a visual impairment into a professional strength. Her latest show, “Fragments: celle qui m'habitait déjà,” engages audience members through all the senses but sight. If you can see, you're asked to wear an eye-shade during the performance. Audrey-Anne talks to Tom Power about how she approaches storytelling beyond the visual, and how that brings people together in unexpected ways.

It's Friday afternoon, which means a fresh episode of Oilersnation Radio is ready to massage your eardrums with an hour of off-season Oilers talk. On today's podcast, the fellas discussed the Oilers losing three of four, some recent milestones on the roster, David Tomasek's first NHL goal, line combos, and much more.We kicked off the Friday episode of ONR with a delicious debate about Evan Bouchard's rough night against New York, and whether anyone is worried about what was a miserable evening for No. 2. While there's no doubt that Bouchard didn't play well against the Rangers, being too concerned about him this early in the year probably doesn't make sense either. That said, he definitely needs to play better given the minutes he commands, and it will be interesting to see if he faces any supplementary discipline like Darnell Nurse did a couple nights before. Continuing with the breakdown of the last few games for Edmonton, the Oilers blew a two-goal lead against the Rangers on Thursday, which was incredibly disappointing and frustrating given how they had dominated the game early. In the span of just under four minutes, the Oilers went from being up by two goals to being in a tie game. Even with a late power play opportunity, the boys couldn't get the job done. To make matters worse, the comeback didn't happen because the Rangers were shooting the lights out, the loss happened because the Oilers cannot stop making 10-bell mistakes.Finally, we wrapped up the Friday episode of ONR with another round of Ask the Idiots, betting talk for our friends at bet365, and Hot and Cold Performers to look back on the week. With the 2025-26 season well underway, the guys spent the bulk of the Friday episode discussing a range of topics, some related to the Oilers and others not, but that's what happens at this stage of a new campaign.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!Powered by @bet365.

The Oilers CHOKE after having a 3-1 lead heading into the 3rd period leading to the Rangers taking this one 4-3 in OT. Tom Gazzola, Ben Thomson, Matt Kassian and Reid Wilkins are here to breakdown the Oilers failing to hold onto this lead. How much of this loss can you blame Skinner for? What was Bouchard doing all game? What does Knoblauch do next? All of these questions answered with some great discussion on this edition of The GCL Diesel Oil Stream Postgame Show right here on Edmonton Sports Talk!

Carts and King aren't letting the darkness creep in, even though the boys might feel like they're in an endless tunnel right now. For a week that didn't produce much to talk about, the hosts sure had a lot to say. But let's be honest, it was a tough week to be a Minnesota sports fan, but this show is going to change all that! Buckle up for a marathon pod, all leading up to an amazing interview with some legendary Minnesota Wild Alumns in Pierre Marc Bouchard, and Brian Rolston. The guys talk about style on and off the ice, how to dangle across the blue line or on the shootout approach, and how sometimes you just need to take a clap bomb from the hashmarks. Bouchard and Rolston talk about their time under Jacques Lemaire, the fond memories of the Xcel Energy Center, and how team meals were often made at home in those days. The Minnesota Wild celebrate their first 25th anniversary game tonight against the Winnipeg Jets, so listen up for a great pre-game pod, and dust off the old sweaters for a blast from the past.

Ceux et celles qui ont ouvert le Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean l'ont fait par moments au péril de leur vie. Il fallait du courage pour se lancer dans une telle aventure! Cette communauté qui souhaitait faire une contrée libre s'est plutôt heurtée au clergé et au capitalisme sauvage. Gérard Bouchard, qui vient de publier Terre des humbles: les Saguenayens 1840-1940, revient sur l'histoire du « Royaume ».

This week, Scheana sits down with Mimi Bouchard, founder of the Activations app, to talk all things energy, alignment, and stepping into your future self. Mimi opens up about hitting rock bottom in every area of her life—the five pillars: mental, physical, financial, spiritual, and social—and how that led her to create Activations, short motivational audios that rewire your mindset while you live your life. The two dive into intuition, boundaries, perfectionism, people pleasing, and the power of listening to your gut. Scheana shares how trusting hers led to a major career decision, while Mimi explains why transformation isn't about being perfect—it's about how fast you bounce back. Plus, they get into manifesting love, quantum energy, “Be Her Now” habits, and yes… their shared Hannah Montana era.

The hilarious Jake Johnson, co-host of the We're Here To Help podcast and Peter Parker in the Spider-Verse films, joins Paul and Jason to cover Grizzly II: Revenge—a "horror" movie featuring George Clooney, Laura Dern, and Charlie Sheen that was filmed in 1983 and finally released in 2020 with a bunch of modern b-roll. They discuss all the concert footage, John Rhys-Davies' amazingly uncomfortable portrayal of Bouchard, the poachers who only want money and boners, the weird daddy/daughter vibes, and—wait... enough about the movie! Which hot young actors are Geek Sqwad?? Elordi is Geek Sqwad. Sweeney is Geek Sqwad. Zendaya? NOT Geek Sqwad! Who are the Geek Sqwad?
