Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (3.2) Mark Thompson is in the house! Tim Conway Jr. in-studio and wastes zero-time detonating today’s top story: the L.A. Kings have fired head coach Jim Hiller, ending his run behind the bench and handing the whistle to D.J. Smith. Then it goes from sports panic to global shock: Tim and Mark break down the rapidly escalating conflict after U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran and widespread reporting that Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei was killed. Back home, emotions spill into the streets as parts of L.A.’s Iranian-American community react—some celebrating, many anxious, and everyone dealing with the real-world ripple effects (yes… including traffic). And the security conversation turns urgent after the Austin Sixth Street bar shooting, now being investigated for a possible terrorism nexus—with officials stressing early details are still developing. Just when you think the show can’t get bigger… it does: a HUUUUGE celebrity call-in from Shaun Cassidy—’70s teen idol, “Da Doo Ron Ron” hitmaker, actor, and full-on triple threat—checking in from the road as he’s back out touringSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Oilers added big, right-shot defender Connor Murphy to shore up their defensive conscience, but when you factor in the Skinner/Kulak-for-Jarry swap and the draft capital spent, it’s fair to question whether they’ve meaningfully improved, especially with bottom-six centre still a need. On the broader D market, Tyler Myers’ no-trade indecision may be stalling movement, with names like Ristolainen, Faulk, and Parayko also in play. The Rangers’ Braden Schneider and the Blues’ Robert Thomas are drawing interest but would command massive returns, while Jordan Binnington chatter is quietly building after his Olympic performance boost. Meanwhile, Craig Berube seemed to question his team’s heart and hockey IQ and the Kings fired Jim Hiller with DJ Smith stepping in amid playoff pressure. Will teams like Boston and Pittsburgh, armed with significant draft capital, emerge as surprising deadline players? The countdown is on!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hear from Kings Head Coach Jim Hiller following tonight's 3-2 overtime victory over the Dallas Stars.

In this episode of Summer Coolers, Neil Smith and Vic Morren dive into the offseason developments for the Los Angeles Kings after another frustrating playoff exit. For the fourth consecutive year, the Kings were eliminated by the Edmonton Oilers in the first round—this time after holding multiple leads and letting key games slip away. With Rob Blake out and Ken Holland in as GM, the Kings are attempting to retool—but are they reloading or regressing?The hosts break down the impact of Holland's veteran-heavy signings—Corey Perry, Cody Ceci, Joel Armia, and Brian Dumoulin—all of whom push the Kings' roster deeper into “win-now” territory. But with an aging core that includes Drew Doughty and Anze Kopitar, and a first-time head coach in Jim Hiller, there are real questions about whether this team can make it out of the first round, let alone compete for the Cup.They also revisit LA's playoff series against Edmonton, highlighting how close the Kings were to taking control—and how costly breakdowns and coaching decisions may have sealed their fate.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00] A fourth straight playoff loss to the Oilers — what went wrong again?[01:00] Ken Holland takes over as GM — will he be the answer?[01:33] Offseason additions: Perry, Armia, Ceci, Dumoulin — average age over 34[02:40] Perry's Stanley Cup Final curse — five different teams, five losses[04:15] Game-by-game recap: blown leads, failed challenge, poor puck decisions[06:00] Byfield's development, Fiala's upside, and depth up front[07:15] Defensive drop-off: losing Gavrikov, aging Doughty, concerns with Ceci[08:10] Coaching hot seat: how long is the leash for Jim Hiller?[09:15] Could Peter DeBoer be an option if things go south early?KEY TAKEAWAYS:The Kings continue to stumble in the postseason, despite holding multiple leads over the Oilers in key games.Ken Holland's first offseason as GM focused on experience, but at the expense of speed and youth.The blue line took a hit with the loss of Vladislav Gavrikov, and the replacements (Ceci, Dumoulin) raise concerns.Jim Hiller is not Holland's hire, and with big expectations and a veteran group, a slow start could trigger changes.Quinton Byfield's second-half surge and the continued consistency of Kempe and Danault offer hope—but the pressure is building.RESOURCE LINKS:

The St. Louis Blues took a step this season, can they find a way to become an elite team in the Western Conference? What will the Wild do this summer? Will the Kings run it back with both Rob Blake and Jim Hiller in charge? Can the Lightning keep their window open for another run? The guys went through all of those questions.Tyler then popped in for Fill in the Blank where he asked the guys about their first round MVP, which second round series is the biggest lock to go seven games, and what draft lottery outcome would be the most chaotic?To wrap up the pod, they talked about the Rangers officially hiring Mike Sullivan as their next Head Coach and then they went through every second round series and gave their predictions.1:05 - Rantanen steals series & Jets storm back17:40 - Can the Blues take another step?21:40 - The future of the Wild28:20 - Changes in Los Angeles?35:55 - Has the window closed in Tampa Bay?1:00:55 - Leafs vs Panthers1:02:30 - Canes vs CapitalsWant to hear more from Frank, Jason and the entire DFO team?
