We already reviewed our own Apples & Ginos projections — now we're zooming out and looking at the players most of the fantasy hockey industry missed on this season.In this episode, Ryan and Blake dig into 8 of the biggest over- and under-projected players from preseason rankings and projections across the analyst world. We look at which stats surprised us, why the projections missed, and what lessons we can take into next season.Players discussed include Cutter Gauthier, Darren Raddysh, Brayden Point, Matvei Michkov, Rasmus Dahlin, Moritz Seider, Anthony Mantha, and Auston Matthews.Were the breakouts real? Were the disappointments just bad luck? Was it usage, deployment, shooting percentage, injuries, team context, or something else entirely?We're breaking it all down and trying to figure out what it means for next year's fantasy hockey drafts. Let's get to BIZ!

Zach Hyman is officially off the Olympic roster, and with Seth Jarvis stepping in for Brayden Point, the boys break down what it means for Team Canada and how the lineup could shake out.

The boys also revisit Leon Draisaitl's postgame comments from Wednesday night and debate whether his frustration points to deeper issues within the organization. Is this just emotion boiling over, or does it signal that a change behind the bench might be necessary?Later in the show, Ryder from The Sauce joins for his weekly Friday hit to talk a little bit of everything, including the state of the Oilers and the Big Game coming up this weekend between the New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks.

Sunday’s Tampa Bay vs Boston outdoor game delivered a true spectacle — great hockey weather, a goalie fight, and a wild Lightning comeback from four goals down — though not without controversy, as Boston bristled at the penalty disparity and power plays that swung momentum, even if, as Ray notes, the Bruins are among the league’s most-penalized teams. The game also raised Olympic questions with Anthony Cirelli injured and Brayden Point’s status looming, highlighting the rigidity of Olympic rosters where changes can’t be made once the tournament begins, prompting speculation about potential standby players flying to Italy, while Sam Bennett is banged up but expected to be fine and Zach Hyman’s name creeps into the conversation given his 50-goal-pace production and versatility. Meanwhile, Connor McDavid gave fans a rare, heartfelt glimpse into his mindset with his Players’ Tribune piece “Dear Canada,” a raw expression of his love for the game and a clear signal — especially to Oilers fans — of his desire to win a Stanley Cup in Edmonton. Barry Trotz announced he’ll step down as Nashville Predators GM at season’s end for family reasons, with the organization hoping to have a new GM in place by the draft, marking the first time in franchise history that neither Trotz nor David Poile will be involved. Plus, Ryan Rishaug checks in from Milano Cortina to talk facilities and schedule in advance of the Olympic Hockey tournaments.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Holy smokes do we have a jam packed show for you today or what!First up, we're talkin' about the 1992-93 Los Angeles Kings - ol' Wayne and the boys looked pretty boss in the silver and black and their play on the ice backed it up. Lucky Luc Robitaille lead them with 125 points, and #99 joined them at mid-season after resting his sore back to turn it up and take them to the cup final!

They discuss the Leafs' complete game against the Avalanche last night, how Toronto will approach their crease, what is going on with the Ottawa Senators, if Ivar Stenberg could overtake Gavin McKenna for the #1 Pick at the upcoming NHL Draft, how Brayden Point's injury could affect Canada's Olympic team, and much more.

Rick Stroud and Steve Versnick on the Bucs continuing to interview coaches for their Offensive Coordinator position, the Lightning have now won 10 straight games but Brayden Point left Monday's game injured plus the Steelers lose so it is the final game for Aaron Rodgers and Mike Tomlin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Brayden Point’s apparent leg injury has cast doubt over his Olympic availability with just a month to go, forcing Hockey Canada to game-plan potential replacements which will apparently be decided primarily by filling the same role as Point and there is an elite list of candidates. The Toronto Maple Leafs are surging with points in 10 straight, punctuated by an OT win in Colorado that snapped the Avs’ 17-game home win streak. The Eastern Conference is beginning to separate as hot streaks by Toronto, Tampa Bay, and Buffalo contrast sharply with the spiraling New York Rangers, whose brutal 10–2 loss underscored league-worst defensive play and looming roster uncertainty even for players with no-trade clauses. Coaching turmoil hit Columbus as the Columbus Blue Jackets fired Dean Evason after just 45 games and brought Rick Bowness out of retirement to stabilize a team undone by goaltending and late-game collapses, while the New Jersey Devils briefly quieted the noise by snapping a five-game skid with a road win in Minnesota amid ongoing debate over roster moves. Finally, renewed criticism of the NHL playoff format gained traction after Chris Mason highlighted how Western contenders are forced to eliminate each other early, a structure Ray argues undermines the regular season despite the league’s continued support of division-based seeding.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
