Mike Schopp and Bulldog open the show sharing their thoughts on NHL Players being allowed to play in the Olympics.

The Colorado Avalanche sit atop the League with a comfortable lead and games in hand. Denver Post Avalanche beat writer Corey Masisak joins Meghan Angley to break down the current state of the Avs, from a league-worst power play to questions about sustainability. Is this team a contender masking flaws with elite talent or are they really that good? They dig into the team with and without Gabriel Landeskog, how closely his absence is tied to the team's identity, and whether that dependence is a red flag or simply reality. Corey also weighs in on trade deadline priorities including the need for a 3C and depth D. Plus: who are some surprise performers for the Avs this season? DENPerks presents the Great Pineapple on Pizza Debate. DENPerks features 200+ restaurants, retailers, and services across every concourse at Denver International Airport—and DENPerks Rewards members earn rewards every time they shop or dine at the airport.

Denver Gazette beat reporter Evan Rawal joins Meghan Angley to break down the current state of the Avs, starting with the team's biggest on-ice needs. We dive into what a true playoff 3C should look like, how Colorado can upgrade its depth, and why size does --- or doesn't --- matter when projecting postseason success. We also explore Jared Bednar's project over the Olympic break, examining what areas of the game the coaching staff is likely digging into and how this evaluation period could shape decisions down the stretch. From there, the focus shifts to the trade deadline landscape: how aggressive the Avalanche should be, what types of players fit their system, and how Colorado can best leverage its draft picks, prospects, and roster assets. We discuss potential target profiles, market realities, and how the front office might balance short-term Cup pursuit with long-term flexibility. Finally, we look ahead to Olympic expectations for players like Nathan MacKinnon, Cale Makar, Brock Nelson, and more: which countries could surprise on the international stage, and how the tournament could impact the Avalanche heading into the stretch run.

Send us a textThis week on Leave Your Mark, I'm joined by Max Lapierre.Max played 11 full seasons in the NHL, spending time with the Montreal Canadiens, Anaheim Ducks, Vancouver Canucks, St. Louis Blues, and Pittsburgh Penguins, with additional years in the AHL and European professional hockey. Drafted by the Canadiens in 2003, Max carved out a career built not on hype but on work ethic, competitiveness, and an edge he had to earn every single day.But what makes this conversation powerful isn't just the resume.It's the honesty.Max shares what it was like growing up in a small town, betting on himself early, navigating trades that shook his identity, and living with labels that didn't always reflect his true capacity. We talk about pressure, confidence, being misunderstood as a player, and how certain environments can either limit you—or unlock you.We also dive into his post-playing transition. Just before retirement, Max co-founded the podcast La Poche Bleue with Guillaume Latendresse—what started as something fun between friends exploded into one of the most influential hockey platforms in Quebec and beyond. Alongside that, Max has built a thriving career in broadcasting with TVA Sports, offering sharp, thoughtful insight into the game he lived.At the center of it all is family—his wife Natasha, their three daughters, and the values Max is now intentional about passing on.This is a conversation about earning your place, adapting through uncertainty, and learning who you are when the jersey comes off.Episode 454 with Max Lapierre.If you liked this EP, please take the time to rate and comment, share with a friend, and connect with us on social channels IG @Kingopain, TW @BuiltbyScott, LI+FB Scott Livingston.
