Headlines and 12th man news with GREGG BELL (Tacoma News Tribune) Gregg got stranded in Boston but wasn't going to let a couple feet of snow stop him from getting to the Combine! He joins us from the road as he roadtrips his way from Boston to Indianapolis. What are the chances the Seahawks bring back Ken Walker? They've had plenty of chances to get a deal done before this point, but by all accounts, they haven't approached Walker or his people about making something happen. If the Seahawks don't bring back Walker, where do they spend that money? Who becomes the priority? :30- EELI TOLVANEN (Seattle Kraken) joins the show fresh off his Olympic bronze medal. His Finnish team beat Sweden for the bronze, so we ask him what makes Finland better than Sweden? How is he feeling coming off the Olympics? Is he tired? With 25 games to go, we talk to Eeli about the playoff push and more. :45- There were so many takeaways from last week in Peoria, so it's time to find out what Chuck learned at Spring Training Part 3. The organization is very excited about Kade Anderson and Ryan Sloan, but how will they be used? What we learned is that we don't expect either of them to appear much, barring injury (knock on wood) and if there is an issue, Emerson Hancock would be the 1st man up. Where does the starting pitching depth go from there? Yes, there is a chance they will both make their debuts this year, but we don't expect to see them early.

It's Pajama Party week in Indianapolis as the Combine is underway. Workouts begin on Thursday and we take a look at some key prospects with Ken Walker's future with the Seahawks up in the air. Who should we have our eye on and where could the Seahawks potentially land a running back in the draft? :30- EVERETT FITZHUGH (KAN PxP) Kraken hockey is back tomorrow, how excited is Everett? The playoff push starts tomorrow in Dallas- can the Kraken keep that momentum they had before the Olympic break? How big of an advantage is it for the Kraken to have only sent 4 players to Italy? How big of a boost will hockey get from that USA Gold Medal win? :45- Everett mentioned the Olympic experience, but that most Americans & Canadians are still all about the Stanley Cup.

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?

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.

We start the show with a big question, Are The Buffalo Sabres Good? Sitting third in the Atlantic Division, can the Sabres snap their playoff drought this year?Sticking in the Atlantic, the Toronto Maple Leafs are struggling sitting five points out of the playoffs. Are Toronto's playoff hopes over?The Detroit Red Wings are a team that has surprised with their record so far and with an abundance of cap space could we see the Wings make a big splash before the Olympic Break or at the deadline to vault this team to another level in an Eastern Conference that remains relatively open for the taking?The Boston Bruins continue to hover around the final Eatern Conference playoff spot. Bruins' backup Joonas Korpisalo has been sensational since the beginning of 2026 with a 4-0-0 record, sub two GAA, and a SV% over .940. With Jeremy Swayman heading to the Olympics, could we see more starts by Korpisalo and a tandem forming similar to when the Bruins had Swayman and Linus Ullmark? The Pittsburgh Penguins are giving Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang their storybook farewell. Considered at the beginning of the season as a team that could turn the chapter on their veterans and rebuild, the Penguins currently sit second in the Metro Division and are riding a four-game winning streak.A big question for Penguins' GM Kyle Dubas will be what to do with Malkin? The veteran forward is a free agent after this year but has shown he still has gas left in the tank. With Crosby under contract still for next season, could we see Malkin resign and ride off into the sunset with his long-time teammate or will Dubas look to turn over this team to some of his younger prospects climbing the organizational ranks?Malkin and the Penguins' situation brings up the topic of development and is it better for younger players to grow with other young players and go through those growing pains together or is it better to have a group of seasoned veterans in the room to ease rookies into the league and pass down their wisdom?The Anaheim Ducks have had a rollercoaster season but sit third in the Pacific and are on a seven-game win streak. This mix of veterans and youngsters could be the blueprint for other teams going into a rebuilding stage or trying to breakout from their rebuilds to get back to contention. Evan Bouchard had a monster game Saturday posting six points, including his first ever hat trick in a 6-5 overtime win over the Washington Capitals. How rare was Bouchard's night for NHL defenders?Nikita Kucherov now sits third in NHL scoring and with Nathan MacKinnon and Connor McDavid stealing a lot of the spotlight, it's hard to overlook the Russian winger's impact for the Tampa Bay Lightning who have had a slew of injuries this season yet still sit second in the Atlantic Division. Does Kucherov not get the attention he deserves on a national scale?Pat joins the show for another edition of Buy or Sell: Carter Hart and Adin Hill will be the goalie tandem for Vegas come playoffsVegas to win the PacificA big trade will occur before the Olympic BreakLastly, the guys discuss all the new faces that could be in the playoffs this season and if this parity is good for the NHL or if the parity devalues the Stanley Cup?0:00 - Intro3:15 - Are The Sabres Good?6:40 - Are Toronto's Playoff Hopes Over?11:15 - Red Wings in the Market12:05 - Boston Bruins15:00 - Pittsburgh Penguins15:20 - What Does Dubas Do With Evgeni Malkin?17:15 - Development21:40 - Anaheim Ducks28:00 - Bouchard Hatty35:30 - Nikita Kucherov38:40 - Buy or Sell50:55 - New Teams in the PlayoffsYou can get involved with all the NHL futures action over on bet365 by using the promo code NATION at bet365.comConnect with us on ⬇️TwitterInstagramWebsiteDaily Faceoff Merch Hosted on Acast.

Mario and Bryan kick off 2026 the only way they know how: with a full-on banger of a podcast episode. The guys look back on a wild 2025 in their personal lives, from health journeys, love, and surgeries to unexpected ancestry revelations that sent them digging into who they really are and where they come from. It's reflective, honest, and occasionally unhinged—in the best way possible. Can also blame the live show chat (we love our fans).From there, it's a full recap of the chaos that was 2025. The Aliens debate the best and worst moments across sports, pop culture, and politics, trying to decide once and for all if last year truly lived up to its “wacky” reputation. And because it wouldn't be this podcast without some big-picture takes, they peer into the future to ask the real questions: are we headed toward total societal meltdown, how swole will Bryan and Mario get in the gym, is Argentina going back-to-back at the World Cup, or is there a long-awaited Detroit Red Wings return to the NHL Playoffs? Buckle up—2026 starts here.

Luca Celebre of BarDown and TSN joins Jesse Montano and Meghan Angley to break down the Avalanche's scorching five-game win streak and what it says about Colorado's early-season identity. We dive into the Avs routing multiple red-hot teams, Nathan MacKinnon leading the NHL with 33 points, and Martin Necas's top-10 offensive surge. With Colorado sitting four points clear atop the league and still undefeated by more than a one-goal margin, we take a closer look at Scott Wedgewood's impact and his league-leading win total. Plus: Bardakov's limited usage, why Gavin Brindley looks like an instant fit next to Colton and Nelson, and the big question on everyone's mind — did Gabriel Landeskog score or was that goaltender interference in Buffalo? A full-table look at the league's hottest team with Luca's insights and plenty of Avs-specific breakdowns. #ColoradoAvalanche #GoAvsGo #AvsNation #NathanMacKinnon #CaleMakar #GuerillaSports #Hockey #AvalancheHockey #MileHighHockey #AvsFans #Avalanche2025 #Mikko Rantanen #AvsGameDay #NHLHighlights #DenverSports #AvalancheForever #MakarMagic #HockeyInColorado #StanleyCup #NHL This show is brought to you by RefiJet Did you know you could refinance your auto loan?
