On this week’s show, Boston, Rob and I recap FC Cincinnati’s 2-0 defeat to LAFC from the CincyShirts.com Studios. We were all quite shocked to see the starting XI that Alan Koch rolled out for Saturday night’s match, particularly Justin Hoyte getting the start at RB. After 10 minutes, it looked as though it would be an LAFC onslaught. Darren Mattocks nearly scored on the counter which could have changed the match. In the end, a 2-0 result is a better outcome than most of us expected. We had a chance to talk tactics this week with new CST staff member Brad Gough. Brad is currently a technical director with the Northern Kentucky Soccer Academy. He’s got a wealth of knowledge when it comes to soccer and tactics and we’re really thrilled to have him on board with us. Can you believe we’re already 25% through with the MLS season?

After taking a week off due to the fact that Ben's internet was buried in 13 inches of snow, Filibuster has returned to your ears! Adam, Jason, and Ben talk first about the terrible loss of Nick DeLeon and our feelings about him, as well as the loss of Darren Mattocks in the Expansion Draft and the upcoming round 2 of the Re-Entry Draft. In the second segment, we go through 13 players in Cake (

Welcome back soccer fans! Did you enjoy the MLS Cup? The hosts of Sons of a Pitch: An American Soccer Podcast give their take on one of the most meaningful MLS Cup Finals in league history. With Atlanta United's 2-0 victory over the Portland Timbers, and the last 4 MLS Cup Champions being expansion teams, there is a clear message to owners and managers what is needed to build a contender. Tune in for Nick and Mike's thoughts and where the league is going, and whether we are witnessing MLS 3.0. Also, the hosts discuss the idea of league parity and whether league imposed rules should be lifted. Next, the podcast takes a look at the latest transfer news. Big names have moved - Zack Steffen to Manchester City, Maxi Urruti to Montreal Impact, Caleb Porter to coach a returning Zlatan Ibrahimovic and the LA Galaxy. How does this shape the teams, and was the value of the player worth the deal? Finally, the hosts review FC Cincinnati's expansion draft picks and transfers. The big news being the expansion side's acquisition of Greg Garza from Atlanta, along with Kendall Waston, Darren Mattocks, Kei Kamara, Roland Lamah, Eric Alexander, and Hassan Ndam. Has FCC built an immediate contender or will they need a few seasons to compete for hardware? Finally, congratulations to our bracket challenge winner, Greg, with his entry: My Loons Suck. Surprisingly, Greg was our only entrant who picked Atlanta United to win the MLS Cup. Greg: Email us your information so Mike can send your prize!   As we enter the offseason, let us know what topics you'd like covered and be sure to follow us @SOPSoccer. Thanks for listening!

Even though technology conspired to destroy Ben's computer while trying to record this podcast (quite literally), he was still able to put together Jason and Adam's effort as they soldiered on without him. The lonely boys talk about D.C. United's loss to the Seattle Sounders, including what went wrong on the two Sounders goals, what generally went right otherwise, and the misunderstood enigma that is Darren Mattocks. They also talk about the lack of other scoring options, and the possible squad rotation upcoming in Toronto. In the second segments the boys welcome on Dunch Fletcher from The Vocal Minority. They ask him whether or not Toronto FC are back to being scary-good after their win over Philly, the difference in playing Michael Bradley at his actual position, the future of Greg Vanney, and how to gameplan against the Red. Give it a listen!

Filibuster is back and finally has a D.C. United win about which to talk! Jason, Adam, and Ben talk (9:10) about how good it feels to have watched a well played game, and one that scored multiple goals off of the high press. We break down Paul Arriola's move to central midfield and what that meant for Zoltan Stieber. We get into Darren Mattocks and whether or not Wayne Rooney would have been in position to finish the second-half chance that Mattocks did not, heap praise on Chris Durkin, and take another look at the status of the back line. In the second segment (41:04) we welcome back a Filibuster favorite: Alicia Rodriguez of Angels on Parade. We talk about her shiny new team, its star player, Carlos Vela, and their new stadium. We also discuss their back line prospects against D.C. United, since many of their players will be away on national team duty, as well as their central midfield. We end be asking Alicia about LAFC's local broadcast deal with YouTubeTV and ask her to gameplan LAFC for us. Give it a listen!

We have a game to analyze, and so Filibuster is here to take you through it. Jason, Adam, and Ben talk about D.C. United's opening draw against Orlando City SC, and we have to start with the second half. We talk about tactics versus execution of those tactics, and how the midfield was less than the sum of its parts. We also discuss Darren Mattocks' break away and penalty kick, the disturbing trend of late goals, and how this was the best played game of the entire first week of MLS. In the second half, we welcome on Eric Quintana from Dirty South Soccer to preview D.C. United's weekend nationally televised match against Atlanta United. We discuss what happened in their 4-0 opening day loss, the departures of Carlos Carmona and Yamil Asad, and the play of their defense. We also discuss Miguel Almiron, what thebest position is for Darlington Nagbe, whether Andrew Carleton should have played, and their new stadium. Give it a listen!

The season is just around the corner (and the Concacaf Champions League starts tonight!) and Filibuster is here to bring you up to speed. In the first segment (10:39), Jason, Adam, and Ben talk about D.C. United second preseason game. We heap praise on Darren Mattocks and especially Zoltan Stieber, talk about Luciano Acosta and the midfield, and get excited for Chris Durkin and his ability to win balls. We also go over the defense, and Oniel Fisher in particular. In the second segment, we welcome back our old friend Matt Doyle of MLSSoccer.com to get his thoughts on MLS as a whole going into 2018. We talk about the money and talent that is infusing the league, both on the field and on the sidelines, and how there might be even more moves in the summer. We discuss the weird offseasons that Minnesota, Colorado, and other teams have had, and the tactical trends around the league. We look at D.C. United's striker situation and how their homestand will play out, before asking Matt who the most interesting team is in the league. Give it a listen!

With one preseason game behind us and another big signing under their belts, Jason, Ben, and Adam talk (8:29) about D.C. United's performance against Malmo FF. We talk about the game overall and the play of Darren Mattocks, and go deep into the roles of the revamped midfield. We also discuss whether or not the starters in this game gave us any insight into Ben Olsen's thinking, the cuts to the preseason campers after this game, and the arrival (finally) of Yamil Asad. In the second segment (41:10) we welcome back Alicia Rodriguez of Angels on Parade to discuss the new folks in town: LAFC. We try to come up with a team nickname, before jumping into the big name players and who might be an under the radar signing. We ask if they know they can sign more than 18 players, ask about our old friend Deja Jakovic, and the work that they've done in the community, before ending with their shiny new stadium. Give it a listen!

The Filibuster trio is back together, and not a moment too soon. Jason, Adam, and Ben discuss MLS Cup, the final game of the 2017 season, and we talk about Toronto FC's formation switch and the great game of Michael Bradley. We wonder if Seattle Sounders could have done anything sooner and better, and whether or not this TFC team had the best season in MLS history. In the second segment we get one of Adam's Fun Time News Roundup Times!, in which we discuss the signing of Frederic Brillant and Darren Mattocks, the state of the team's international roster spots, and the re-signing of Steve Clark in goal. We also discuss what Eryk Williamson's best position is and whether or not he will sign for D.C. United, as well as the expansion draft and the Re-Entry draft. Give it a listen!

Vancouver Whitecaps have limped into the playoffs. For the second straight week they had a chance to finish first in the West and for the second straight week, they blew it. Joe Deasy and Gideon Hill join Steve in the studio to look over all the ins and outs of the 'Caps loss in Portland. What went wrong, what was with the line up, and did anyone stand out, in a good way? Plus we hear from both head coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and Portland's Caleb Porter We also have exclusive interviews with Whitecaps Jordan Harvey and Nosa Igiebor about the match, Nosa's debut, and the MLS playoff path ahead, plus Portland's game winner Darren Mattocks chats about sticking it to his old club. Now that that regular season is done and dusted, we look ahead to the MLS playoffs, previewing Wednesday's knockout game against San Jose and giving our bracket predictions. And there's still time to chat with 'Caps goalkeeping coach Stewart Kerr about the Marinovic/Ousted conundrum, and see Goldie Lookin' Chain return again in this week's Wavelength.

Kings of Cascadia, we know who we are. Another Cascadian derby, another six points. Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1 comeback victory over Portland Timbers could be a turning point in the 'Caps season. We'll have to wait and see, but right now, let's just bask in the win. We look back at the key moments of the match, which players did and didn't stand out on the day, and hear the thoughts on the game from both head coaches, Vancouver's Carl Robinson and Portland's Caleb Porter. We also head into the losing locker room and hear from Portland's blundering Kiwi 'keeper Jake Gleeson, ten pint man Liam Ridgewell, and former Whitecap miss machine Darren Mattocks. We also look ahead to the Chicago and Toronto games and give a hat tip to the form of WFC2. There's a lot of chat to be had, so have a listen!

You were expecting MLS to settle down in Week 2? Not a chance. Andrew, David and Matt break down yet another thrilling (and often confounding) weekend of play that saw Houston shellack in-state rivals FC Dallas, Montreal establish themselves as an early power, Sporting KC’s Dom Dwyer wow on and off the pitch and Quincy Amarikwa make the MLS world stand up and scream in delight. In the second segment, a Cascadia trade between Vancouver and Portland that saw Darren Mattocks head south inspires some trade scuttlebutt. Plus, why is Poku sitting in New York? Then Dynamo goalscorer and assist man Andrew Wenger joins the guys to talk hype trains, Hamilton and Owen Coyle’s system. Finally, a soon-to-be-married fan asks for advice winning over his in-laws in the mailbag. Help the man out ETR fam!

Once again Sean and Harrison join forces to discuss things that are some what relevant to US Soccer, MLS and nerds. Harrison talked about his game plan for reading the Harry Potter series to his son and that led to dealing with player loss and attachment in a business driven world.Getting to the matters at hand, Sean and I broke down Darren Mattocks impending transfer to...  somewhere not in Vancouver and utilized a Risk Matrix to discuss whether he'd be a smart buy for anyone else in MLS.We kind of ranted on CONCACAF Champions League touching the four clubs (RSL, DC United, LA Galaxy and the Sounders) and their (unlikely) possibilities for getting to the next round.Lastly, we talked a bit about Tim Howard and though it's not official we talked as though it was mentioning some fun keeper stats that are sure to make our friend Bill Reno green with envy.Visit americansocceranalysis.com for more analytically based content. You can follow ASA (@analysisevolved), Harrison Crow (@harrison_crow) and Sean Steffen (@seansteffen) on twitter and find us on facebook.Subscribe to ASA on iTunes and Stitcher, and give us as many stars are you can!

Vancouver Whitecaps hit the training pitch for the first time in 2016 and AFTN was there to bring you all the action! Well, all the audio. As players new and old try and make a lasting impression on 'Caps coach Carl Robinson, he'll just be hoping that one or more of his strikers can put the ball in the back of the net on a more consistent basis. We chat with two of those strikers, both of whom have been linked with moves away to pastures new this offseason, Jamaican international Darren Mattocks and Erik Hurtado. Mattocks talks about those transfer rumours, finding his international form at club level and his new found maturity and perspective as a soon to be father, while Hurtado tells us about his loan period in Norway and trying to come back and crack the 'Caps gameday squad. If both players hang around, they'll have a new striker's coach, with former Welsh international Robert Earnshaw announcing his retirement to take that position along with becoming head coach of the U14 Residency team. We chat with Earnie about his decision to retire, his coaching path, the challenges ahead, what he hopes to bring to the U14 team and a lot more. And there's still time to hear from Christian Dean about trying to unseat the centre back pairing of Waston and Parker and making an impression of his own, along with some of the big stories from the first week of preseason camp. Have a listen!

Two home matches for Whitecaps fans to look forward to this weekend for the first time since the new USL side came into being. A busy weekend, a packed weekend and AFTN has you covered with it all. It's a battle of West v East at BC Place on Saturday evening when DC United come to Vancouver. We take a look ahead to the game, the key players and what line-up we might see the 'Caps going with. Will DC attack or defend? How can you leave Darren Mattocks out? Will the wee winger Cristian Techera be on from the start? We get the thoughts of Whitecaps coach Carl Robinson and hear from Vancouver players Russell Teibert, Pedro Morales and Mauro Rosales, along with DC United defender Taylor Kemp. With Vancouver's defensive spine being a key component to their early season success, we have an indepth chat with one of the main factors behind that, Argentine defensive midfielder Matias Laba, about him finally being a fully fledged Whitecaps, the season so far and what lies ahead. Our popular "Teammates" section returns and we bring you our first WFC2 one, with Residency alumni and Canadian international, Jackson Farmer. If you're still unfamiliar with some of the USL squad, Jackson's home truths will put you right! And there's still time to look ahead to the USL Cascadian derby this weekend as Sounders 2 come to UBC to take on WFC2 on Sunday. Have a listen!

It's two high flying teams on Saturday - but given their combined goal totals in the last few games, will it be a stinker? Patrick Johnston and Marc Weber take a look at the visitors and the Whitecaps. Darren Mattocks is in fine form, Pedro Morales is a stud at home and Cristian Techera will surely be in the mix.

Is there anything better than spending a sunny Sunday at the football? Well, watching your team win, but apart from that, Vancouver Whitecaps' USL home opener was finally upon us and it was a beautiful day. All that was missing was that win, as WFC2 and TFC2 drew 1-1, but coming on the back of the 'Caps winning 1-0 at RSL on Saturday night, it was a pretty pleasing four point weekend. We look over the win in Salt Lake. Some new tactics on display from the 'Caps and we're not just talking about Darren Mattocks hitting the target. But a lot of positives to come from the game, along with a couple of concerns. Then we turn out attentions to WFC2 and we hear from both coaches, Vancouver's Alan Koch and Toronto's Jason Bent, about the game and their respective team's seasons so far. We also catch up with WFC2 goalscorer Caleb Clarke and captain Tyler Rosenlund after the game to talk about the performance, the first five games and team chemistry. And there's still time for a couple of exclusive chats with some familiar faces, two homegrown products, goalkeeper Marco Carducci and Ben McKendry. We talk to the two Residency alumni about the USL home opener, their seasons so far, what lies ahead for them this year and what they need to show to break into the MLS reckoning. Have a listen!

It's always oh so simple for the Whitecaps these days in Portland. Back to back preseason tournaments in the bag and still a game to spare. We chat with 'Caps coach Carl Robinson and two goal striker Darren Mattocks after Wednesday's 3-2 win over Norwegian side Stabaek, as we look forward to Saturday's final game against Chicago Fire and at the suggestions that Vancouver are a dirty team. We also hear from Fire head coach Frank Yallop in an exclusive chat about Chicago's preseason and Saturday's match-up. And there's still time to chat with Robinson and 'Caps captain Pedro Morales about why South American players seem to be such a good fit for the Whitecaps and MLS. Have a listen!

Sadly it's now the offseason for Vancouver Whitecaps, but fear not, because "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer podcast, will still be with you through these cold, wet and dreary winter months. Episode 84 is here your aural enjoyment and it's the first of a series of special end of season roundtables that we'll bring you over the next few weeks. Your usual co-hosts Michael McColl and Steve Pandher are joined by AFTN writer Jay Duke, and Curva Collective's Zachary Meisenheimer and Steven Lamothe, to discuss the latest happenings in Whitecapsland. We have to start with the playoff loss in Dallas, but we also take a look back at the season past. Is there any way you can't class it as a success for the Caps? The Whitecaps players faced the media for the last time this week and had their exit interviews, and we bring you audio from Sebastian Fernandez and Darren Mattocks, as they discuss the season and what lies ahead for both of them. The Caps season may be over but there's still a lot to play for in MLS. We discuss who we think will win the MLS Cup, who we want to win it and who we don't, and Caps' coach Carl Robinson chips in his thoughts too. And there's still time to share what song we, and some of our listeners, feel sums up the Whitecaps season best, and our "popular" gameshow 30 Seconds To Mars makes it's return. Have a listen!

Episode 78 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer podcast, is a Vancouver Whitecaps v DC United postgame special. The Whitecaps' attack is like an old 78 record at the moment, looking outdated and not relevant to modern surroundings. It was evident again against DC, with Vancouver making it four straight games, 411 minutes and nine halfs of football without finding the back of the net. We look back at the highs and lows of the game and get locker room audio from coach Carl Robinson, defender Jordan Harvey, midfielder Mehdi Ballouchy and striker Darren Mattocks. And there's still time to head into the enemy's lair and hear the thoughts on the match from DC coach Ben Olsen and former Whitecaps Residency player Kyle Porter. Have a listen!

Episode 77 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer podcast, might not have as much flair and excitement as Vancouver Whitecaps' number 77 Pedro Morales, but it's jam packed with Caps analysis and training ground audio. We look back at the Portland horrorshow and try and figure out just what went wrong. Have the Whitecaps simply been figured out and how do they get out of their current funk? Do they need to change formation and will that see Kekuta Manneh played as an out and out striker? If Pedro Morales doesn't perform, then the Caps don't perform. We wrote about that in an article earlier in the week, and coach Carl Robinson weighs in with his thoughts. We also have more training ground audio and views from Robinson, David Ousted, Andy O'Brien and Darren Mattocks. And there's still time to look ahead to this weekend's game with DC United.

Disinfectant at the ready, the Great Unwashed are coming to town. Portland come a calling to BC Place on Saturday in a crucial Cascadia Cup clash with vital playoff points on the line. A Whitecaps win and they're sitting pretty, A Timbers win and Caps start to lose the momentum in the playoff race. Episode 76 of "There's Still Time" looks at what lessons, if any, we can take from the Whitecaps' 2-0 loss in LA and ponders whether a change of formation would help with the goalscoring woes. Or will that take a new addition and could he be on the way in the shape of Kei Kamara? We also look ahead to this weekend's big game hunt against the Timbers. Can the Caps give Will Johnson and co a right good face slapping? And there's still time for lots of training ground audio from Caps' coach Carl Robinson, goalkeeper David Ousted, defenders Jordan Harvey and Andy O'Brien, and strikers Kekuta Manneh and Darren Mattocks. Have a listen!

It's Episode 74 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN Soccer Podcast, and we're in a celebratory mood. Not just because the Vancouver Whitecaps beat Sporting Kansas City to get back into the playoff places in the MLS Western Conference, but also because this podcast was recorded on the 25th birthday/anniversary of when AFTN first began as a fanzine back in Scotland on August 10th 1989. So a special day for AFTN and a special day for the Whitecaps, who got back on track and finally stopped drawing. We pick over the bones and the highs and lows of the game and hear audio from both locker rooms, both coaches and a number of the players. On the Whitecaps side we hear from head coach Carl Robinson, goalscorer Darren Mattocks and goalkeeper David Ousted. And from Kansas City, we have a good chat with their head coach Peter Vermes (one of the best coaches to chat to in MLS in our opinion), their penalty-saving goalkeeper Jon Kempin and All-Star defender Matt Besler. And there's still time to look at whether the Whitecaps should/will make any further additions to the squad before the roster freeze, the USL Pro town forums and Canada's potential World Cup bid for 2026. Have a listen!

The blunderbus(s) is loaded. All aboard for episode 73 of the AFTN soccer podcast. Your usual co-hosts Michael McColl and Steve Pandher look at the latest happenings in Vancouver Whitecapsland with a Dallas post game show. More home points dropped against the FUDs, that's five points dropped in the last two home games, which is simply not good enough if Vancouver Whitecaps want to be a playoff contender. We look back at the 2-2 draw with Dallas, the mistakes that led to the visitors' two goals and the inability to convert more than two of the 30 chances created. Who played well? Who had a game to forget? What's missing and what can be done to change things? We look at all that and more. We also hear post game audio from both locker rooms. For Vancouver, we have some frustrations from head coach Carl Robinson, goalkeeper David Ousted, goalscorer and goal misser Darren Mattocks and captain Pedro Morales. Dallas coach Oscar Pareja shares his thoughts on the game and we hear from rising (hopefully) Canadian star Tesho Akindele. And there's still time to get some tweets from our listeners on where the Caps need to strengthen as the number one priority and a look at the heartbreak that was in store for the U23s in the PDL Western Conference Final Four. Have a listen!

Vancouver Whitecaps' fighting spirit was in abundance as they fought back twice to take a point at home to the LA Galaxy. Our LA postgame show looks back at the main talking points of the game. Did the Caps go with the right formation? What about those early substitutions? Should we be buying a book called 'Where's Pedro'? What are the Whitecaps missing going forward? What's going to happen now with the still dropped Nigel Reo-Coker? And of course, we look at the goals. All four of them. We also hear from both locker rooms.Carl Robinson, Darren Mattocks, Kenny Miller and point securing goalscorer Kekuta Manneh bring you some inside from the Vancouver side, whilst Bruce Arena, Omar Gonzalez, Dan Gargan and a not very happy Robbie Keane give us some LA insight into the result. Whilst Rob Friend tells us what it was like to be back playing football again in BC and how close he was to signing for the Whitecaps last summer. And there's still time to bring you the latest Whitecaps Residency news and details of next weekend's BC Provincial Cup quarter finals. Have a listen and Happy Easter everyone!

Episode 14 of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast, and it's another one of our post game pods. It was lucky 13 for Vancouver Whitecaps as they finally got a monkey off their back and won their first Cascadia Cup game in the MLS era. Steve and myself look over the match and we hear post game from both managers, Martin Rennie and Sigi Schmid, along with some chat from Kenny Miller, Brad Knighton and Darren Mattocks. And there's still time to look ahead at what's coming up for the Caps and at what areas they should be looking to strengthen in the upcoming transfer window.

Episode nine of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast, and it's a special roundtable discussion about Vancouver Whitecaps' season far. Recorded at the Vancouver Alpen Club, we're joined by Zachary Meisenheimer and Massimo Cusano, of Whitecaps' supporters' group Curva Collective, and AFTN writer Jay Duke to discuss the highs and lows of Caps season so far. There's lots of chat around how good/bad the first third of the season has been, who should be in the starting eleven and who shouldn't? Who have we missed the most, why can't we buy a road win, is Daigo Kobayashi any good, when will Greg Klazura get his shot, and who should start up front? We look at Martin Rennie's tactics and I'm still trying to trade away Darren Mattocks. And there's still time to introduce our new podcast gameshow 30 Seconds To Mars, where our guests battle it out to win the coveted AFTN Mars Bar (sadly not deep fried, at least not for this week).

Episode eight of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast, and it's our second post game special. Recorded at BC Place after the win over Los Angeles Galaxy, it's quite a cock-a-hoop mood for once with myself and Steve. We bring you audio from both Martin Rennie and Bruce Arena on the game; two goal hero Russell Teibert talks about his standout performance, what it means to him and doing it for his watching family; Darren Mattocks talks about the relief of breaking his goalscoring drought; and Nigel Reo-Coker chats about the game and of being a proud mentor. We also look ahead to the upcoming Voyageurs Cup final and gets the thoughts of Rennie and Teibert on the match with Montreal. We're joined for a special roundtable chat on all of this, and the Caps PDL win on Friday night, by two guest co-hosts: Benjamin Massey from Maple Leaf Forever and the Two Fat Bastards podcast, and Andrew Bates from Little Rubber Pellets.

It's episode seven of "There's Still Time", the AFTN soccer podcast. Steve Pandher and myself take a look back at the Real Salt Lake game and ask why the Whitecaps make it so difficult to win on the road and Andy O'Brien shares his thoughts on the Caps away woes. One of the big talking points to come out of the game was the post game dressing down from the manager and Nigel Reo-Coker. With the dust settled, we hear from Martin Rennie and Joe Cannon about how good or bad that was for the team to hear. And there's still time to look ahead to the LA game at the weekend and the Whitecaps PDL season which gets underway on Friday. You can also hear our brand new theme tune, specially written for us by local Vancouver band The Oh Wells. Check them out and support local music as well as local soccer. We're planning to do another one of our post game shows on Saturday, so keep your eyes, and ears, peeled for that.

Episode six of "There's Still Time", the AFTN podcast and it's our first post game special. Recorded at BC Place after the Dallas game, Steve and myself are joined by Andrew Bates to chat about the comeback, the terrible defending, the diving, the missed opportunities and what the Whitecaps need to do to try and get a MLS win again. We have post game audio from Caps coach Martin Rennie about Darren Mattocks and Steve takes part in an interesting threesome with Dallas coach Schellas Hyndman and the Province's Marc Weber. Our main guest this episode is Vancouver Whitecaps' defender Greg Klazura, who made his season debut against FC Edmonton in the Voyageurs Cup on Wednesday. We talk to Greg about the game, how he's settling in to life in Vancouver, the frustrations of waiting for his MLS debut and of course his famous headband and faces. And just why was he wearing gloves in nine degrees weather?! And there's still time to look ahead to Wednesday and what may lie in store in the second leg against the Eddies and who we'd like to see the Caps face in the final. Going forward, we're planning to do several of these post game pods this season, with different guests and co-hosts, and a lot more audio from the locker rooms. Have a listen!
