Podcast appearances and mentions of Mitch Marner

Spring Cleaning – Vegas Golden KnightsThe Vegas Golden Knights captured the Pacific Division title and returned to the Stanley Cup Final, but the biggest story of their offseason wasn't their playoff run—it was the stunning decision to part ways with head coach John Tortorella just 48 hours after losing to the Carolina Hurricanes. Neil Smith and Vic Morren break down one of the NHL's most fascinating organizations, examining Vegas' win-now philosophy, looming salary-cap challenges, lack of draft capital, and what comes next for Kelly McCrimmon and George McPhee.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Golden Knights finish first in the Pacific Division with 95 points before defeating Utah and Anaheim, sweeping Colorado, and advancing to the Stanley Cup Final, where they fall to the Carolina Hurricanes in six games. Just two days later, Vegas shocks the hockey world by moving on from head coach John Tortorella.[00:00:35] Neil reacts to the surprising coaching change. Although the organization publicly praises Tortorella's work, the announcement does not suggest the separation was mutual, leaving many questions about what happened behind the scenes.[00:01:00] Unlike most Spring Cleaning episodes, Neil and Vic shift away from evaluating expectations and immediately focus on the uncertainty surrounding the franchise because the coaching situation overshadows everything else.[00:01:30] Vegas underachieves during the regular season despite boasting a star-studded lineup featuring Jack Eichel, Mitch Marner, Pavel Dorofeyev, and captain Mark Stone. Bruce Cassidy is replaced late in the year before Tortorella guides the team to a 7-0-1 finish and a deep playoff run.[00:02:15] While the Golden Knights fail to reach the 100-point mark many expected, their run to the Stanley Cup Final ultimately fulfills the organization's championship expectations.[00:02:45] The discussion turns to Kelly McCrimmon and George McPhee. Rather than analyzing player statistics, Neil focuses on the difficult roster decisions awaiting one of the NHL's most aggressive front offices.[00:03:15] Vegas has mortgaged much of its future in pursuit of championships. The organization owns no first-round selections until 2028 and only 14 total draft picks over the next three drafts.[00:03:45] The Golden Knights are projected to become the NHL's oldest team when free agency begins, carrying an average roster age of 31.2 years.[00:04:10] Vegas enters the 2026 NHL Draft with only four selections and no first-round pick after acquiring Noah Hanifin. The club also forfeits its second-round selection following an organizational media violation during the playoffs and no longer owns its fourth-round pick after acquiring Anthony Mantha.[00:04:50] Salary-cap flexibility is limited, with approximately $4.6 million in projected space. However, the Golden Knights could gain nearly $9 million more if Alex Pietrangelo remains on long-term injured reserve.[00:05:20] Neil explains the long-term risk of Vegas' aggressive "win-now" strategy. Every contender eventually pays the price for trading away future assets, just as the Rangers did several years after winning the Stanley Cup in 1994.[00:05:50] Even with Jack Eichel, Mitch Marner, and young sniper Pavel Dorofeyev leading the offense, Neil stresses that three elite players alone cannot sustain a championship-caliber roster without continually replenishing talent.[00:06:20] Vegas' unrestricted free agents include Riley Smith, Cole Smith, Colton Sissons, Brandon Saad, Rasmus Andersson, Ben Hutton, Jeremy Lauzon, and Dylan Coghlan. Neil believes Andersson deserves another opportunity after an underwhelming but steady postseason.[00:07:10] Riley Smith and Jeremy Lauzon are also viewed as valuable pieces worth retaining if possible, while Vegas continues evaluating its veteran depth.[00:07:35] Restricted free agent Pavel Dorofeyev becomes the organization's top priority. Reports suggest he could receive a significant offer sheet, potentially forcing Vegas into one of the offseason's biggest contract negotiations.[00:08:10] Neil does not believe the Golden Knights will allow another team to steal Dorofeyev. Based on Vegas' history, he expects McCrimmon to match almost any offer necessary to keep one of the organization's young offensive stars.[00:08:45] Vic raises the possibility of accepting four first-round picks if Dorofeyev receives an offer sheet exceeding the highest compensation threshold. Neil rejects the idea, believing Vegas will continue operating aggressively rather than beginning a rebuild.[00:09:30] With the salary cap increasing significantly over the next two seasons, Neil expects Vegas to navigate the current financial squeeze before continuing its familiar strategy of chasing championships every year.[00:10:00] The search for a new head coach becomes the organization's biggest immediate priority. Henderson AHL coach Ryan Craig has been mentioned, but Neil questions whether Vegas would suddenly change philosophies after consistently hiring experienced NHL coaches.[00:10:40] Neil believes Kelly McCrimmon and George McPhee will once again pursue a proven veteran capable of managing expectations, pushing an experienced roster, and keeping the Golden Knights among the NHL's elite. Winning immediately—not developing for the future—remains the Vegas Golden Knights' identity.

Dallas Stars forward Wyatt Johnston joins Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill for an in-depth conversation. He starts by previewing The Circle of Champions, the August 18 charity event at Scotiabank Pond in Toronto, before reflecting on what it was like growing up in the city as a diehard Maple Leafs fan. Johnston shares memories of cheering for Phil Kessel and later admiring Mitch Marner and Auston Matthews, while explaining why returning home to play in front of friends and family always carries extra meaning.Johnston also revisits his memorable first NHL goal in Toronto on April 13, when the Stars stormed back from a two-goal third-period deficit to beat the Leafs 6-5. He offers advice for top prospect Gavin McKenna as he prepares for life under the microscope in hockey's biggest market, weighs in on the NHL's exploding salary landscape and the wave of massive contracts signed this summer, and discusses why the Dallas Stars continue to churn out elite talent.Plus, Johnston opens up about the impact Joe Pavelski had on his career, why living with the Pavelski family for two years was invaluable to his development, and why he wasn't surprised to hear his former teammate was in the mix for the Maple Leafs' head coaching job, calling Pavelski an outstanding hockey mind and mentor.

Spring Cleaning – Toronto Maple LeafsThe Toronto Maple Leafs entered the 2025-26 season coming off a 108-point, first-place finish, but the loss of Mitch Marner, injuries, internal tension, and disappointing roster decisions sent the franchise in the opposite direction. Toronto missed the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the first time since 2016, leading to the dismissal of General Manager Brad Treliving and serious questions about Craig Berube's future. Neil Smith and Vic Morren examine how the Maple Leafs' championship window slammed shut and why fixing the organization may take much longer than one offseason.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00:00] The Maple Leafs are eliminated from playoff contention on April 2 after entering the season with high expectations following a 108-point campaign and a first-place finish in 2024-25.[00:00:25] The offseason trade of Mitch Marner creates an enormous offensive void. Toronto hopes Matthew Knies, Max Domi, Bobby McMann, and Nick Robertson can collectively replace Marner's production, but that offense-by-committee approach never develops.[00:00:50] Neil revisits his preseason concerns about the return for Marner and the overall construction of the roster. Even before the season began, he did not believe the Leafs were properly built for a deep playoff run.[00:01:10] Brad Treliving ultimately pays the price for the team's collapse. Neil emphasizes that Marner's value went far beyond his 100-point production because he was also one of Toronto's most dependable defensive forwards.[00:01:35] Auston Matthews' knee injury becomes another devastating setback. The Maple Leafs captain misses the final weeks of the season and faces a lengthy recovery following an injury suffered after leading the United States to Olympic gold.[00:02:00] Internal dysfunction contributes to the disappointing season. Neil points to tension between the coaching staff and management, along with widespread dissatisfaction over the direction of the team.[00:02:20] Craig Berube's coaching also comes under scrutiny. With Toronto missing the playoffs for the first time in a decade, questions immediately arise about whether he will return behind the bench.[00:02:40] The difficult relationship between Berube and William Nylander becomes one of the season's recurring storylines, with the two appearing to clash throughout much of the year.[00:03:00] Keith Pelley's role in hockey decisions is heavily criticized. Although Pelley insists he is not making the hockey decisions, Neil believes his public comments suggest otherwise.[00:03:25] Neil describes Pelley's leadership as “Buffoonery 101,” criticizing his statements about finding a data-focused general manager while simultaneously presenting opinions about the quality of Toronto's core.[00:03:50] Since taking control, Pelley has dismissed Brendan Shanahan, moved on from the Raptors' leadership, and remained highly visible as the Leafs' hockey operation deteriorated.[00:04:10] The next general manager inherits a deeply complicated situation. Toronto owns only six selections in the 2026 NHL Draft and has no picks in either of the first two rounds.[00:04:30] The Maple Leafs add an extra third-round selection through the Scott Laughton trade with Los Angeles and acquire another pick from Colorado in the Nicolas Roy deal.[00:04:50] Neil points out that the practical return from the Mitch Marner situation amounts to a fifth-round draft pick, a result he considers a major failure by the organization.[00:05:10] Toronto previously surrendered first-round picks in trades involving Laughton and Nikita Grebenkin, leaving the franchise with very little high-end draft capital returning in the other direction.[00:05:30] Many of the acquired selections do not arrive until 2027. If Colorado remains a contender, its pick will likely fall near the bottom of the round, while the picks Toronto traded away could become more valuable if the Leafs continue to struggle.[00:05:55] Neil expresses sympathy for Maple Leafs fans who have endured decades of disappointment. He believes the situation may become even more difficult before the franchise begins to recover.[00:06:15] Calle Järnkrok and Troy Stecher headline Toronto's unrestricted free agents, while Nick Robertson and Matias Maccelli are the notable restricted free agents requiring new contracts.[00:06:35] The episode concludes with a bleak assessment of Toronto's future. What once appeared to be one of the NHL's strongest championship windows now looks completely closed.[00:06:50] Neil does not simply believe the window is closing—he believes it has been slammed shut. The Maple Leafs now face a difficult organizational reset involving the front office, coaching staff, roster construction, and long-term direction.

Josh Clipperton of The Canadian Press joined Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to break down the biggest stories around the NHL and the Maple Leafs.The conversation started with Amazon Prime acquiring the exclusive Canadian rights to Wednesday Night Hockey from Rogers and what it could mean for hockey fans. Clipperton weighed in on the growing cost of following the sport and questioned whether another streaming subscription could hurt accessibility.From there, the guys discussed Macklin Celebrini's massive new contract extension and what the NHL's exploding salary cap could mean moving forward. They debated the possibility of future buyer's remorse on some of these mega deals, the emergence of teams operating with internal salary caps, and what it all could mean for Gavin McKenna's next contract if he lives up to the hype.Clipperton also shared his expectations for McKenna's rookie season in Toronto, discussed whether the Maple Leafs' reputation as hockey's toughest market is deserved, and explained why he believes the pressure from the media is often overstated. He also reflected on Mitch Marner's "treated like gods" comment and the importance of accountability within the organization.To wrap things up, Clipperton gave his outlook on the Leafs entering the 2026-27 season, explained why he's less optimistic than many of his colleagues, and weighed in on Morgan Rielly's future, saying his gut still tells him the veteran defenceman will be in Toronto on opening night.

TSN Hockey Analyst Mike Johnson joins the show to discuss how Gavin McKenna's game will translate to the NHL, the importance of the NHL combine, the chatter surrounding the possibility of Mike Babcock coaching the Edmonton Oilers, who he thinks should take the net for Carolina ahead of Game 4, and Mitch Marner's dominant performance in this year's Stanley Cup Playoffs,

Rumours continue to swirl that Mike Babcock could be the next head coach of the Edmonton Oilers, a surprising development given his recent comments about being retired and the controversy surrounding his exits from Toronto and Columbus. The belief is that key Oilers leaders, including Connor McDavid and Zach Hyman, may have supported the idea, with Edmonton seemingly accepting that Bruce Cassidy is no longer a realistic option. In Toronto, Joe Pavelski has emerged as a potential coaching candidate, with comparisons being drawn to Martin St. Louis' successful jump behind the bench in Montreal, although the Leafs would be attempting the experiment from a far different competitive position. Meanwhile, frustration has boiled over in Detroit as Dylan Larkin has reportedly requested a trade, providing a three-team wish list of Florida, Vegas and Minnesota after years of playoff disappointment and another painful late-season collapse. On the ice, the Stanley Cup Final continues to deliver incredible drama, highlighted by Game 3 in which Carolina fell behind 4-0 before mounting a remarkable comeback to force overtime, all while maintaining its composure through the adversity. Mitch Marner stole the spotlight early with a natural hat trick and 10-shot performance that showcased a rarely seen shooter's mentality, though his heroics were ultimately overshadowed by the game's wild momentum swings and Vegas' eventual victory.

Happy birthday Ashe in America, and welcome to episode 83. CannCon, Alpha Warrior, and Cam Cooksey kick things off with a wild Stanley Cup Finals breakdown: Mitch Marner's hat trick, Carolina's insane four-goal third period comeback, and an overtime winner that literally bounced off the back of the net and the goalie's own skate. Then the guys go deep on the marine veteran who disarmed a teenage carjacker with his bare hands, with Alpha dropping genuine gang expert knowledge on why talking to police actually protects you more than staying silent. CannCon walks through a full home defense firearms training regimen, and Alpha breaks down what a marine kill house actually looks like. The show closes in full Pride Month debauchery mode with Rob Schneider's veterans-versus-gay-month bit, an AI simulating the first woman president, and the crew absolutely losing it over Tom Brady launching a coconut water brand called Good Nut. Men unsupervised. Happy Pride.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Thursday. Real_G Warner is back with the June 4 episode of the what I bet podcast on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed of the pregame.com podcast network, and the card tonight is headlined by Game 2 of the NHL Stanley Cup Finals, with the Vegas Golden Knights heading back to Raleigh as plus money underdogs after stealing Game 1 on the road, 5-4, erasing a 2-0 deficit and getting a late winner from Tomas Hertl. Vegas is plus 138 in Game 2, Carolina minus 157, and the series price has already flipped all the way to the Golden Knights minus 140 favorites, a swing of roughly 222 percent on the Hurricanes side. Warner has been riding this team throughout the postseason, going five for five on the Knights as underdogs, and he is not stepping off now. Mitch Marner leads the entire 2026 playoffs with 21 points across 16 games, blocking shots in regulation and throwing no-look assists in the same shift, while Jack Eichel leads the postseason in assists with 16 and Ivan Barbashev, the Barbershop himself, has been a physical force at every stage of the run. On the baseball side, Warner runs through eight Thursday matchups, calling the Padres-Phillies game with Lucas Giolito against Zack Wheeler a tough spot for San Diego, skipping the Orioles-Red Sox matchup with Trevor Rogers and Brayan Bello in Boston as a pass with no strong angle, noting the Guardians plus 145 in the Bronx against Carlos Rodon and Slade Cecconi is a respectful number but a difficult structural spot for a small-ball club, passing on the Giants at Milwaukee with Adrian Houser against Coleman Crow while lamenting the state of the San Francisco front office, waiting on Seth Lugo and the Royals in Minnesota before committing to a side, leaning Astros at minus 105 with Kai-Wei Teng over Jared Jones in just his second start back from internal brace surgery, and watching the Dodgers price on Justin Wrobleski at Arizona against Ryne Nelson with Arizona plus 120 looking interesting. The best bet of the episode is Oakland Athletics plus 112 on the road at the Chicago Cubs, with J.T. Ginn carrying a 2.87 ERA and five straight quality starts into a matchup against Shota Imanaga, who has allowed eight home runs in his last three outings, and if the Wrigley wind blows out, Warner likes this number even more.

They dive into Mitch Marner's postseason, what went wrong for the Avalanche, Cale Makar's injury, and whether Colorado should consider a coaching change.
