Carl and Mike open up the show with some Hawks talk as they agree "winning beats losing" and it is good to see the team earn their third straight win. As they discuss, they share thoughts on whether or not the team should make a move by the trade deadline as they are currently sitting in the 10th place spot in the Eastern Conference standings.
We start the show with a big question, Are The Buffalo Sabres Good? Sitting third in the Atlantic Division, can the Sabres snap their playoff drought this year?Sticking in the Atlantic, the Toronto Maple Leafs are struggling sitting five points out of the playoffs. Are Toronto's playoff hopes over?The Detroit Red Wings are a team that has surprised with their record so far and with an abundance of cap space could we see the Wings make a big splash before the Olympic Break or at the deadline to vault this team to another level in an Eastern Conference that remains relatively open for the taking?The Boston Bruins continue to hover around the final Eatern Conference playoff spot. Bruins' backup Joonas Korpisalo has been sensational since the beginning of 2026 with a 4-0-0 record, sub two GAA, and a SV% over .940. With Jeremy Swayman heading to the Olympics, could we see more starts by Korpisalo and a tandem forming similar to when the Bruins had Swayman and Linus Ullmark? The Pittsburgh Penguins are giving Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang their storybook farewell. Considered at the beginning of the season as a team that could turn the chapter on their veterans and rebuild, the Penguins currently sit second in the Metro Division and are riding a four-game winning streak.A big question for Penguins' GM Kyle Dubas will be what to do with Malkin? The veteran forward is a free agent after this year but has shown he still has gas left in the tank. With Crosby under contract still for next season, could we see Malkin resign and ride off into the sunset with his long-time teammate or will Dubas look to turn over this team to some of his younger prospects climbing the organizational ranks?Malkin and the Penguins' situation brings up the topic of development and is it better for younger players to grow with other young players and go through those growing pains together or is it better to have a group of seasoned veterans in the room to ease rookies into the league and pass down their wisdom?The Anaheim Ducks have had a rollercoaster season but sit third in the Pacific and are on a seven-game win streak. This mix of veterans and youngsters could be the blueprint for other teams going into a rebuilding stage or trying to breakout from their rebuilds to get back to contention. Evan Bouchard had a monster game Saturday posting six points, including his first ever hat trick in a 6-5 overtime win over the Washington Capitals. How rare was Bouchard's night for NHL defenders?Nikita Kucherov now sits third in NHL scoring and with Nathan MacKinnon and Connor McDavid stealing a lot of the spotlight, it's hard to overlook the Russian winger's impact for the Tampa Bay Lightning who have had a slew of injuries this season yet still sit second in the Atlantic Division. Does Kucherov not get the attention he deserves on a national scale?Pat joins the show for another edition of Buy or Sell: Carter Hart and Adin Hill will be the goalie tandem for Vegas come playoffsVegas to win the PacificA big trade will occur before the Olympic BreakLastly, the guys discuss all the new faces that could be in the playoffs this season and if this parity is good for the NHL or if the parity devalues the Stanley Cup?0:00 - Intro3:15 - Are The Sabres Good?6:40 - Are Toronto's Playoff Hopes Over?11:15 - Red Wings in the Market12:05 - Boston Bruins15:00 - Pittsburgh Penguins15:20 - What Does Dubas Do With Evgeni Malkin?17:15 - Development21:40 - Anaheim Ducks28:00 - Bouchard Hatty35:30 - Nikita Kucherov38:40 - Buy or Sell50:55 - New Teams in the PlayoffsYou can get involved with all the NHL futures action over on bet365 by using the promo code NATION at bet365.comConnect with us on ⬇️TwitterInstagramWebsiteDaily Faceoff Merch Hosted on Acast.

The Pistons may have dropped a tight contest against a strong Houston Rockets team, but they are still sitting alone at the top of the Eastern Conference. With the trade deadline right around the corner, Wes and Blake break down that loss to the Rockets and what it might mean for the playoffs to come. How should the team counter the Rockets' defensive strategy? How often will Cade see that defense? They also dive into a mock trade deadline that Wes was fortunate enough to participate in, hosted by the Bird Rights Podcast. What trades were these fake Pistons able to make? What do we think about the value of those deals and how the roster fits together in that scenario? Finally, the guys answer the big question… would this team be better with Malik Beasley than they are with Duncan Robinson?We've got you covered for all this and more in this week's episode!You can watch the entire episode on our YouTube channelFollow Wes Davenport on Twitter @TheRealWesD3Follow Blake Silverman on Twitter @BlakeSilvermanFollow Detroit Bad Boys on Twitter @DetroitBadBoysWant to hear your voice on the Pindown?

As the second half of their regular season begins, the Rockets are 15-3 at home and 12-13 on the road. But their latest road win, which came Friday at Detroit on night two of a back-to-back, was perhaps their most impressive of the entire 2025-26 campaign.The Rockets (27-16) and Pistons (32-11) remain at No. 4 and No. 1, respectively, in the Western and Eastern Conference standings.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, Friday's “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the key storylines from that statement victory. Topics include the physical and mental dominance of Kevin Durant; a somewhat underwhelming night on defense from Alperen Sengun; and promising signs from the likes of Amen Thompson, Jabari Smith Jr., and Reed Sheppard.This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBQOSCDeJk

Munaf Manji talk betting for Tuesday January 20th Munaf Manji opened the Tuesday edition of Cash That Ticket with a fast paced review of the NBA landscape, blending recent results with betting context and league wide developments. Detroit continued its strong season by edging Boston 104 to 103, cashing an under Manji highlighted before the game. Cade Cunningham delivered a double double with 16 points and 14 assists, while Jalen Brown scored 32 in the loss. The Pistons improved to 31 and 10, strengthened their grip on the top seed in the Eastern Conference, and moved to 18 and 4 at home, reinforcing their profile as a legitimate contender midway through the schedule. Golden State followed with a 135 to 112 win over Miami in a game that featured the pace and scoring Manji anticipated. The Warriors poured in 70 first half points and finished with 247 combined points, easily clearing the total. Stephen Curry posted 19 points and 11 assists, but the night turned somber when Jimmy Butler suffered a torn ACL that will sideline him for the remainder of the season. The injury halted a strong stretch in which Golden State had won four straight and seven of ten, raising immediate questions about roster direction and how the front office may respond with one of its top players facing a long recovery at age 37. Around the league, Phoenix beat Brooklyn 126 to 117, Philadelphia handled Indiana 113 to 104 behind Tyrese Maxey's 29 points, eight assists, and eight steals, and Dallas dominated New York at Madison Square Garden. Oklahoma City delivered a statement performance in Cleveland, winning 136 to 104 after a decisive fourth quarter surge, while Milwaukee edged Atlanta on the road. The episode also covered the announcement of NBA All Star starters. The Western Conference lineup featured Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, Shai Gilgeous Alexander, Stephen Curry, and Victor Wembanyama. The East was led by Giannis Antetokounmpo, Cade Cunningham, Tyrese Maxey, Jalen Brunson, and Jalen Brown. Manji noted the voting breakdown, with fan votes accounting for half the total and players and media splitting the rest, and pointed out that LeBron James will miss an All Star start for the first time since his rookie season. The discussion set the stage for upcoming betting angles and deeper breakdowns later in the week, while keeping focus on actionable information tied directly to current form, injuries, and market performance.
