With ten (or so) games remaining in the season, the playoffs are almost upon us. We open with a brief comment on the B's and Brad Marchand. The Isobel Cup final is today (the 26th) and we talk about the growth of women's hockey, including the Women's National Team Evaluation Week. The IIHF Championship squad will be selected from this group. Binnington has won a Stanley Cup, but should the Blues buy him out this off-season, or find some other way to move on from him after his on-ice behaviors of recent? We delve into Twitter Poll results regarding a first round matchup with the Bruins and we talk about the Alaska Nanooks. They just missed out on a spot in the NCAA tournament, but had a successful season to be sure. We touch briefly on a fun stat...cost per point...and point out its flaws. Tage Thompson has the opportunity to become the tallest player in the NHL to have a 50 goal/100 point season. We delve into the player poll results, talk about Jakub Vrana's recent history in the NHL and Anthony Duclair and his foundation. A deep show to be certain so listen and Enjoy the Show!

As you've seen, Season 3 is dedicated to my father, Mike Jacox, who passed away late in 2021. I Love and miss you, Dad.Today, we sit down with Coach Greg Sparling, the head coach of the Alaska Fairbanks Nanooks! Coach Spar and I met 25 years ago while playing QB at Central Washington University. Coach spent 24 years at CWU before joining the Nanooks. In his first year, Alaska only managed five wins, ending the season 5-22, 2-18 GNAC, and missing out on the GNAC Championships for the third consecutive year. In 2019-20, however, the Nanooks turned things around under Sparling as he led Alaska back to the postseason for the first time since 2015-16 with a record of 12-18, 10-10 GNAC, and an appearance in the 2019-20 GNAC Championships as the final seed. Today, we talked to Greg Sparling, the dad. We talked a ton about Basketball, as you can imagine, but you will also learn about one of his sons, who is an excellent Rodeo athlete! For any parent whose kid plays sports, this is a must-listen as you will receive great advice from a collegiate coach! During our lightning round, we give some love to Coach Burns, who was also at CWU and is now an assistant at Boise State. We talk about the power of communicating and showing your emotions through vulnerability. Coach reminds us that we must slow down, enjoy our time with our kids, and set the example in the crowd when watching our kids play sports. He shares that we must be role models as they always watch us.To learn more about Coach, you can go to https://alaskananooks.com/sports/mens-basketball.

What’s on tap for Thursday includes an examination of Antonio Brown’s chances to land in Seattle. The early returns as MLB teams report to camp are that guidelines won’t be adhered to. Also, Chuck is still trying to wrap his head around what the roster rules are and how it could affect the Mariners. And it’s full steam ahead with our Nanooks push for the NHL Seattle name.
The top eight stories of the day every day on The Ocho. Former Mariners infielder and utility man Mark McLemore joins the show to discuss some of the challenges players will face in returning to baseball this summer, the impact of the virus on society as a whole and protection protocols.

Playoff fields are set in four conferences after last weekend, while two conferences still have a final week left in their regular season. Hosts Jim Connelly (@jimmyconnelly) and Ed Trefzger (@EdTrefzger) look at the results of February 27-29, 2020.In Hockey East, Boston College has clinched the regular season and UMass has locked up home ice, but four teams are still battling for the last three playoff spots.In the NCHC, North Dakota has won a share of the regular-season Penrose Cup, but Minnesota Duluth could share that title, while St. Cloud still has a shot at home ice.Cornell's highly-anticipated Saturday contest with Clarkson was a bit anticlimactic after the Golden Knights' tie with Colgate on Friday clinched the Cleary Cup for the Big Red, but the surprise team in ECAC Hockey is Rensselaer, which earned a first-round playoff bye.With its season completed last week, Penn State had to await the results of the weekend to see whether it would hold onto first place in the Big Ten. The Nittany Lions won their first Big Ten regular-season title after Minnesota and Ohio State managed just one point each on the weekend. In the WCHA, Minnesota State clinched sole possession of first place with a weekend split with Bemidji State, while Alaska's sweep of Alaska Anchorage gave the Nanooks home ice in the first round of the playoffs.Atlantic Hockey's repeat regular season champion American International had already clinched the league, but three teams competed over the weekend for the first-round bye, which Niagara won with a sweep of Robert Morris.And Arizona State's PairWise position was shored up by the weekend's results, with the Sun Devils at No. 12.This episode is sponsored by the 2020 NCAA Frozen Four, April 9 and 11 in Detroit.

After fighting in the first gulf war, John Nagl returned to the United States and took part in a simulated military exercise. As a tank commander, he had all the overwhelming firepower any soldier could hope for…and yet he lost to a group of Alaskan National Guard infantrymen, known as the Nanooks. Nagl’s unit was unassailable by any conventional military force but a group of lightly armed troops, defying all the rules of how wars “should” be fought had defeated a much, much stronger force. That failure bothered him so much that he decided to devote the rest of his life to understanding it and making sure it never happened again. During the 90’s, the American military trained for the war it wanted to fight: a war just like the first Gulf War. Nagl’s experience with the Nanooks had convinced him that no conventional military would ever make the same mistake that Saddam Hussein had made in taking the US Army on head on. Instead, he suspected that the US’ major threats would come from small, irregular groups of troops employing hit and run engagements rather than full frontal assaults. Even though it would reduce his chances of rising through the ranks, Nagl convinced the Army to send him to Oxford to study counter-insurgency and figure out how the US could defeat an enemy as irregular as the Nanooks. As he read through the histories and primary sources, he came to realize that what the Nanooks had done was a very old form of warfare. In fact, it was the exact form of warfare used by the Viet Cong in Vietnam. The exact form of warfare that America (focused on the conventional military tactics of World War II) had been unable to defeat. While in traditional war, the goal is to annihilate the enemy this strategy is counter-productive in fighting a counter-insurgency. Counter-insurgency is much more complicated, subtle and time-consuming. It is what T.E. Lawrence (Lawrence of Arabia) described in his book as being like learning to eat soup with a knife. This phrase so inspired Nagl that he made it the title of his own book on the topic, Learning to Eat Soup with a Knife: Counterinsurgency Lessons from Malaya and Vietnam. Throughout the 90’s and early 2000’s, little attention was paid to this book. By the time Nagl deployed to Iraq for the War on Terror, the book was still virtually unknown. However, as America found itself mired in another insurgency, the American military began to realize the vital importance of Nagl’s insights. And so, General Petraeus asked Nagl to write the official Army and Marine Field Manual on Counter-Insurgency. In his most recent book, Knife Fights: A Memoir of Modern War in Theory and Practice, Lt. Col John A. Nagl (Ret.) tells the story of the incredible revolution in military thinking that he has helped pioneer. If you don’t want the terrorists to win, you should read all of John Nagl’s books.
