Jim Fox and Dave Pagnotta join host Jesse Cohen for a preview of the LA Kings first round matchup against the Colorado Avalanche.

The April 19, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated had Ray Floyd on the cover after he absolutely ran away with the Masters, winning by eight shots at 17-under par in a wire-to-wire masterpiece. The story made it clear this was a different Floyd — more mature and more locked in than ever— while still giving props to guys like Ben Crenshaw who finished second. It was classic Augusta in the middle of the Bicentennial spring. On the baseball side, SI was excited about the Giants' fresh start after new owners kept the team in San Francisco and packed the house for Opening Day. But while there was new found enthusiasm in SF, Brooks Robinson's days were nearing an end in Baltimore. The greatest defensive third baseman ever, was still grinding at the plate even as his hitting had slipped from his MVP days. quite a bit. The issue also had some wild stuff — a diver going into the giant shark tank at the New England Aquarium, Honest Pleasure looking like a Derby monster, and notes on the Yankee Stadium renovation. It was a fun snapshot of spring sports in 1976, mixing big moments with the raw edge of the era. And speaking of raw, the NHL section delivered with the “Week of Disgrace on the Ice,” where multiple Philadelphia Flyers players were charged with assault after a violent playoff game in Toronto. The piece also introduced readers to Pete Demers, the longtime head trainer for the Los Angeles Kings, who later earned his place in the LA Kings Hall of Fame, the PHATS Hall of Fame, the Rhode Island Hockey Hall of Fame, and the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. Demers was the guy stitching up faces and taping ankles through all the blood and chaos of 1970s hockey — a true behind-the-scenes legend. Pete joins us on the podcast to talk about his time in the NHL, how tough the players were that he treated back then and how the players lined up at his door for treatment in order to play. He talks to us about how Wayne Gretzky almost cost him his job after his trade to L.A. and how the difference between owners Jack Kent Cooke and Bruce McNall. And he tells us how a beer he kept in his drawer for almost 20 years was the best tasting beer he ever had in 2012. It's a week of golf, horse racing, baseball, and the crazy days of 1970's NHL action relived by a man who saw it all... Pete Demers on the Past Our Prime podcast. Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode 349 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features Los Angeles Kings goalie development and AHL goalie coach Adam Brown. In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Brown shares stories and insights from a unique path as the son of a long-time NHL assistant coach that included getting to be in the room with some big names, his own playing days into minor pro, and the transition into coaching. He shares lessons from some of his early and current influences, including recent InGoal Radio guest Mike Buckley, and some exceptional advice on trying to bridge the gap between teaching technique and allowing goalies with different strengths and styles to play free. In the Parent Playbook, presented by Stop it Goaltending U the App, we dig into the truth about junior tryout camps -- is it just a cash grab, or is it worth it for your young goalie?  We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, featuring Dustin Wolf of the Calgary Flames breaking down a lateral power play chance and what he calls a '"50-50" push.  And in our weekly gear segment, we head to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, for a look at an exciting event coming soon featuring the Bauer staff and perhaps even a few pro guests.

Dennis Bernstein joins host Jesse Cohen to help crown a King of the Week and recap the twenty-seventh week of the 2025-26 season. The pair discuss the three games the Kings played in the past week. The Kings went 3-0 in games against Nashville, Vancouver and Edmonton while Anze Kopitar played his final regular season home game.

The Washington Capitals kept their playoff hopes alive with a win over Pittsburgh on Sunday, earning the nickname “Cockroach Caps” (coined by Brandon Duhaime) for their refusal to fade despite selling at the deadline. With young talent emerging, the Caps appear capable of retooling on the fly. The game marked the 100th and perhaps final time, Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin went head-to-head, a subplot that added emotional weight to what feels like a quiet farewell tour for a true legend of the game. Meanwhile, the Ottawa Senators clinched a playoff spot but slipped into the second wildcard after an OT loss to the New Jersey Devils, though they remain a dangerous matchup thanks to strong defensive structure and a red-hot Linus Ullmark. Out West, the Los Angeles Kings have surged with four straight wins, holding a wildcard spot with games in hand and a favourable schedule against non-playoff teams. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 348 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features freshly signed Los Angeles Kings prospect and 2025 NCAA champion Hampton Slukynsky. In the feature interview presented by NHL Sense Arena, Slukynsky talks about the decision to leave Western Michigan one year after winning a national championship and sign his entry-level deal with the Kings alongside older brother Grant, a forward who has been a big part of his path. Slukynsky shares insights and stories from his unique development route, from backyard rink sessions with his brother and older friends in Minnesota, to relying on YouTube for coaching until he got to the USHL, where he also won a championship as a rookie while having a goalie coach for the first time. He also talks winning gold at the under-18 world Championships, under-20 World Junior Championships and World Championships alongside Jeremy Swayman and fellow NHL Sense Arena user (we get into how he uses it) Joey Daccord.  In the Parent Playbook, presented by Stop it Goaltending U the App, we talk about the best ways to find growth opportunities this summer with different coaching voices and camps.   We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, featuring Casey DeSmith of the Dallas Stars with a great breakdown on how to manage plays when you feel behind laterally.  And in our weekly gear segment, we head to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, for a look at they steps required to go from designing your dream gear on one of the many recently launched customizers, to making sure it fits your body and your game, and placing that custom order.

Then, they weigh in on the urgency in the Leafs' GM search after the Islanders jumped the line for Pete DeBoer, and the fit of rumoured candidates, including Sunny Mehta and Chris Pronger. Later, Sportsnet's Luke Fox joins the show (31:20) to share his thoughts on Craig Berube's anti-tanking philosophy in the final stretch, why the Leafs should go after Laughton in the offseason, John Tavares' elevated play with Auston Matthews out of the lineup, and team goals with five games remaining.

Buckley talks about teaching "motion," a variation on backwards flow (for lack of a better term) that isn't limited to rush chances, and the psychology and mindset he's brought to the Kings, including walking us through a simple breath work drill that Anton Forsberg said has helped him immensely this season. It really is a can't miss interview loaded with takeaways for goalies at every level.   In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop it Goaltending U the App, we ask whether that desire to protect our kids in minor hockey is really preparing them for life beyond it.  We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, featuring Jet Greaves of the Columbus Blue Jackets with a two-part look at sharp-angle shots and passes behind screens.   And in our weekly gear segment, we head to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, for a look at the Warrior Alpha Surge pads, with so many new features we had to saves the gloves for another time.
