Damien Cox is in for Bob today acting as co-pilot for John as we welcome Kevin Paul Dupont to the show to end the week.   We start the show by addressing the Phil Mickelson story that has taken over the internet and somehow it turned into a deep dive into Kevin and Damien's shared love of sports. From what their watching now to their memories of the greatest live events they've been to - the three look at how the world of sports has changed over the years before ending the show with a discussion about the NHL's Atlantic Division.

It's the end of an era for two different NHL franchises with the passing of longtime owner of the Chicago Blackhawks & the retirement of a Bruin great in Patrice Bergeron.   For the first half of the show we talk to George Ofman about the ups and the downs of the Rocky Wirtz era in Chicago while we go over the legendary career of a Boston Bruins legend, Patrice Bergeron. 

Hour 3 - In the final segments of the season, Razor and Scott look at the moves the front office made before and during the Bruins' season and if they get any blame for how the season ended. Also, Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe mentioned possibly trading Charlie McAvoy in his latest article. Does that sound crazy or could it actually happen?

Mike Zeisberger and Kevin Paul Dupont stop by the show to start the week off with some good ol' fashioned hockey talk. The foursome start the show by discussing the success the Boston Bruins have found this year and wonder if it will translate into the regular season. We move on to talk about the other teams we think may have a shot at the cup, and why, before we end the show with a conversation about COnnor McDavid and where he stacks up in the conversation of "Greatest Hockey Player of All Time"

On todays NHL Roundtable with Kevin and Mike, the four go over last nights Winter Classic between the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Boston Bruins. We talk about the significance of the Winter Classic and question the impact outdoor games actually have when it comes to profit and marketability. We also talk about the Boston Bruins and their elevated level of play compared to last year, the Carolina Hurricanes and fit in a brief discussion about Connor Bedard and the World Junior Championships. 

Hockey talk on todays show as we welcome Bruce Garrioch and Kevin Paul Dupont back to the podcast. With the books finally becoming public for the Ottawa Senators, we get Tinto the potential sale of the team as we look at potential buyers and what new ownership would mean for the franchise. The foursome also spend time discussing the Boston Bruins hot start to the season and briefly touch upon various story lines swirling around the NHL.

It's been a tumultuous weekend in the NHL with the Boston Bruins' signing and subsequent release of Mitchell Miller. The Boston Globe's Kevin Paul Dupont joins the show to dive deeper into the situation with Miller and the Bruins. Plus, Craig, Petey and Leah take a look at the somewhat surprising worst teams in the league right now and discuss all the latest storylines around the NHL!

Two podcast regulars, Mike Harrington and Kevin Paul Dupont join the show to kick off the NHL season with a good old fashioned NHL Roundtable.   Right off the bat the four address the unprecedented cap issues a handful of NHL teams are facing. We look at the teams that are struggling to keep salary cap compliant and speculate on how they are going to dig themselves out of the hole they put themselves in.   Moving on, we talk about what we should expect heading into a brand new NHL season as we go over who we think got better this offseason and who we think took a step back on todays episode.

We are less than a week from the start of the season so the excitement is at a fever pitch.  We delve into what the opening night lineup could look like for the Boston Bruins.  Matt Grzelcyk could be back sooner than expected, as could Taylor Hall.  Matthew Barzal and Mackenzie Weegar have signed extensions with their respective clubs and Jason Robertson has finally signed with the Stars.  Nick Goss feels the B's would be best served with Swayman at number one in net.  Greg Wyshynski predicts that the Oilers will win the Cup, but Chris disagrees.  TopDownHockey has laid out their predictions for the Division rankings at the end of the season and Kevin Paul Dupont has spitballed a trade for Patrick Kane, but we shot down the deal based on what would be heading back to Chicago.  So much covered and lots more to discuss, so listen, comment and Enjoy the Show!

We're back! After a 2 week break, Bob and John ring in the New Year with a good ol' fashion NHL Roundtable featuring two of our favourite reoccurring hockey pucks - Mike Zeisberger and Kevin Paul Dupont.  The four talk at length about the cash grab that is the NHL's outdoor games. We discuss the significance of the now oversaturated event and question the importance an outdoor game has within a fanbase.  We talk about the decision for the NHL players to not attend the 2022 Olympic games, COVID's effect on professional sports' game scheduling and what the solution, if there is one, could be.

Bob and John bring the Hockey experts, MIKE ZEISBERGER & KEVIN PAUL DUPONT back to the show to go over the second round matchups of the 2021 Stanley Cup Playoffs, like they did with the first.  However - before they break down the second round the four address the Mark Scheifele hit and subsequent 4 game suspension - was the punishment fair? and how many games would he have got if this were the regular season? The gentlemen discuss, noting the inconsistencies still prevalent in how hockey is officiated on all levels of the game.  One that is out of the way we get into the games as all four series and matchups are looked at - Is the Bruins defensive core good enough, do the Hurricanes and Golden Knights have a chance against the two league favourites and... Have we underestimated the Montreal Canadiens? All those questions and more are answered on todays roundtable talk.  

Chris Gasper sits down with legendary Boston Globe hockey writer and columnist, Kevin Paul Dupont. He tells us whether the Bruins are bona fide Stanley Cup contenders, why GM Don Sweeney deserves a stick salute for his work, and what polarizing puck-stopper Tuukka Rask can do to finally win over his critics. The noted nickname artist also tells producer Ellen Fleming how he comes up with his catchy sobriquets. KPD also delves into what the NHL plans to do with the Stanley Cup playoffs with the Canadian border still closed due to COVID-19.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 22, 2021 is: ebullient • ih-BULL-yunt • adjective 1 : boiling, agitated 2 : characterized by ebullience : having or showing liveliness and enthusiasm Examples: "Coach Kristen Kirkman, who guided the Bulldogs' boys and girls, is ebullient about her junior class, which she hopes can take the program even beyond last season's Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association finishes of fifth for boys and fourth for girls." — Sonny Dearth, The Virginian-Pilot (Norfolk, Virginia), 14 Jan. 2021 "Born and raised in Fredericton, New Brunswick, the ebullient O'Ree had a very brief NHL playing career…. A goodwill ambassador for the league for the better part of the last quarter-century, he was the first player of African heritage to play in the NHL when he suited up for the Bruins on Jan. 18, 1958, for a weekend series vs. the Canadiens." — Kevin Paul Dupont, MSN.com, 12 Jan. 2021 Did you know? Someone who is ebullient is bubbling over with enthusiasm, so it shouldn't be much of a surprise that ebullient derives from the Latin verb ebullire, which means "to bubble out." When ebullient was first used in the late 1500s its meaning hewed closely to its Latin source: ebullient meant "boiling" or "bubbling," and described things like boiling water and boiling oil. Only later did the word's meaning broaden to encompass emotional agitation as well as the roiling of a boiling liquid.

Last episode, Anna & Chris demanded the Vancouver Canucks grab points off the Edmonton Oilers. Unfortunately, the Canucks didn't listen - despite going up 3-0 early in the first game against the Oil. After a short break to collect themselves, they decided to take a different approach with a 3-0 lead against the Winnipeg Jets and found themselves a solid win. Is it enough to turn the tides? Or do the Canucks remain rudderless? And while the trade deadline is still over a month away, scuttlebutt has Jake Virtanen possibly on the move. Unless you're Kevin Paul Dupont who thinks it could be Petey or Hughes.

It’s almost Halloween and there are some scary things happening in the NHL.  Auston Matthews is injured thanks to a hit from Jacob Trouba. Jonathan Quick is day to day again and it may be cause for concern in the Los Angeles front office.  The Bruins are playing without 3 of their top 6 defensemen and the Two Man Forecheck missed a week for the first time since its inception. We start out with two Twitter Poll results and introduce the new poll:  Which Canadian team will make the playoffs.  For the results, Pastrnak was voted the quickest to 20 goals, and there wasn’t much to discuss regarding which division would have the same top 3 teams. The Forecheckers wax poetic about the surprising play of the Montreal Canadiens.  Claude seems to have them playing somewhat inspired hockey. It could be the trade of their captain, or the absence of their best defenseman, but they have pulled together, and Price appears to be heading back to what is expected of him. This conversation led us into a compare and contrast between Brendan Gallagher and Brad Marchand. Similar in size and playing style, how entertaining would it be to have both of these guys on the same line? Tell us what you think. We at the Two Man Forecheck love John Tortorella.  A story appeared on CBSSports.com about John and his opinion on the niceties of the NHL. He is “sickened” by the lack of “hate” in the NHL.  Now we don’t believe he actually wants people to hate each other, but while on the ice there isn’t enough dislike for the opponent.  Opposing players smiling and laughing during games seems to upset Torts. We talked about this and the lack of rivals for more time than expected. Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe tweeted out that if the Bruins wanted Panarin, the trade would have to start with McAvoy and DeBrusk.  Mike seems to think that this would be enough, along with an extension for Panarin, to get him to don the Black and Gold.  Chris isn’t so sure, believing that there would have to be a pick or prospect or both.  What do you believe?  Do you even want the “bread man” in Boston? Finally, we talk goaltending around the league and goal scoring.  The latter appears to be going up, and the goalie stats seem to bear that out. Starters such as Rask don’t appear to be playing as well as their backups.  The numbers for Halak indicate that he should (and could) be starting in Boston, but he isn’t considered the number one at this time.  Could this be an issue where the coach is hurting his team by not making a choice. Lots of opportunities to share your opinions with us.  Send us that feedback and enjoy the show!

Truly a quiet week in the NHL, this week’s show reflects as much.  The topics range from arbitration to trades to the future location of Lord Stanley’s cup.  We start this trip in Minnesota with the signing of Matt Dumba.  Avoiding arbitration, he has inked a 5 year 30-million-dollar contract. We agree that this is good for both parties going forward. We move to Winnipeg, where the first arbitration hearing has been held for defenseman Jacob Trouba. The feeling here is that he will get slightly below what Dumba will pull in, but will Matt’s deal in any way affect what Trouba gets as a result? Speaking of arbitration, we discuss the hearing schedule and the way it appears to be back loaded with stars.  The feeling here is that the teams hope to avoid hearings for these players by giving them some time to work out details.  Players such as William Karlsson and Ryan Spooner will have to wait to have their respective arguments heard.  Coming up tomorrow the biggest name would probably be Brandon Montour, yet another defenseman that may have his numbers affected by the Dumba deal. There is one goaltender on the arbitration list, David Rittich, from Calgary.  With not much of an NHL résumé, he will not be commanding huge dollars, but will he in any way affect players such as Malcolm Subban, who is in the last year of his current deal.  We don’t believe this to be the case, but do you? Speaking of the Golden Knights, if you have been following the Forecheck during the season, you are aware of the ongoing trademark battle with the U.S. Army.  Well, we are here to report that the battle is over.  Vegas can use the trademark and will be available for use in 60 days, just in time for the new season. The Ducks have displayed on social media their throwback jersey for the upcoming 25thanniversary season, and it is something to behold.  Bringing back memories from the inaugural season, the duck is back! Give it a look! While in Anaheim, we talk about Adam Henrique signing his extension, 5 years, 29 million dollars. This again is a team friendly deal that should be good for both parties going forward. In Boston, one of the foremost hockey writers, Kevin Paul Dupont, writes about Artemi Panarin coming to Boston and how good a fit it would be for the team.  The issue here is what the Bruins would have to give up to get him and how that affects the line he would be on.  What is your opinion? From Boston we land in Detroit and discuss the prospects that could potentially see ice time in Little Caesars Arena this fall.  The belief here is that the two defensive prospects, Filip Hronek and Dennis Cholowski should be starting at the top level but Zadina and Rasmussen will probably start in Grand Rapids. There was a trade in the NHL, but no one will fault you for missing it.  The Coyotes have acquired Jacob Graves and a sixth-round pick for Ryan MacInnis.  Nothing too exciting here, but the Coyotes have filled their 50 contract spots. We mention the twitter poll regarding Artemi Panarin and finish up with our version of where in the world…needless to say, Lord Stanley is in Canada. Give us a listen and tell us what you think!  Enjoy the show!
