Podcasts about former nhl

Former NHL goaltender and TSN analyst Jamie "Noodles" McLennan kicked off today's show! After sharing some great stories about finally meeting YouTube Trev, we dived straight into the latest breaking news out of Oil Country. Noodles gave us his take on the developing Mike Babcock coaching situation—specifically breaking down what the NHLPA's request for a formal league investigation means for the franchise moving forward. If the investigation doesn't swing in Edmonton's favor, what does that say about the future relationship between Connor McDavid and the players' association? We also debated whether Babcock is actually the right fit for this locker room, the reality of potential coaching rust after being out of the game, and what ultimately went wrong during his final days in Toronto. Plus, Noodles weighed in on the rumors surrounding Darnell Nurse's future with the club before wrapping up the segment with his thoughts on the Stanley Cup Final.   It was then time for the Play Alberta Early Bird Bet of the day.   After the break, it was time for some Weekly Advice for Damon Bunting. As always, another great segment full of advice.   We capped off hour two with Eric Macramalla and today was the perfect today to have him on with the whole Babcock/NHLPA situation. He broke this down in the best way he could to touch on why he thinks this is a serious mistake for the orange and blue.

"Noodles" started by dropping his raw takeaways on both of the NHL's final four matchups before shifting focus to the Metropolitan division, breaking down exactly how head coach John Tortorella has completely moved the needle and changed the culture with his squad this season.   With the Eastern Conference Final heading into a raucous Bell Centre in Montreal tonight tied up at one, McLennan mapped out his tactical preview for Games 3 and 4 and highlighted what the Canadiens need to do to protect home ice.
