Former NHL coach and front office executive Pierre McGuire joins Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne (4:46) to chat about coaching Nick with the Hartford Whalers, what it could mean for the Maple Leafs closing their road trip with a win over the Carolina Hurricanes, why the Winnipeg Jets' 'problem' doesn't involve the goaltending, if it would hurt the Montreal Canadiens' chemistry and development if they were to call up a prospect like Jacob Fowler, Quinn Hughes landing spots, and how the reported smaller ice rink could affect the players when the Winter Olympics come around. Then, Nick and Justin are joined by former NHLer and ESPN hockey analyst Ray Ferraro (27:03) to discuss the differences in the Leafs and Florida Panthers' rosters compared to the 2024-25 successful teams, the difficulties NHL teams have to go through navigating the salary cap and trade market especially for the Vancouver Canucks, and the path for the Edmonton Oilers to get back on track. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

Episode 330 of the InGoal Radio Podcast, presented by The Hockey Shop Source for Sports, features an advice-packed interview with Kimberly Newell of the PWHL Vancouver Goldeneyes.In the feature interview appropriately presented by NHL Sense Arena, we catch up with Newell shortly after making the expansion Goldeneyes opening-night roster out of training camp -- despite not playing competitively since the last time we talked to her shortly after the Vancouver native represented China at the 2022 Winter Olympics! If you haven't already, that first interview in Episode 179 is a can't miss conversation, and we pick right back up with lessons on comebacks, mindset advice, an evolving understanding of goalie movement and a whole lot more from one of the truly remarkable stories early in this third PWHL season.In the Parent Segment, presented by Stop it Goaltending U the App, we talk about the dangers of giving advice to a young goalie before a game and even during play no matter how well-intentioned.We also review this week's Pro Reads, presented by Vizual Edge, which featured Dustin Wolf with advice on off-puck awareness, rotational keys and glove projection on a backdoor chance.In our weekly gear segment we go to The Hockey Shop Source for Sports to look at the Bauer Elite and GSX kneepads.

On this week's edition of Next on the Tee, I'm thrilled to welcome back two extraordinary guests who continue to inspire, educate, and elevate everything they touch. First up is one of the most remarkable people I've ever met —Olympic Gold Medal Figure Skater Scott Hamilton. If there was an award for the greatest person on the planet, Scott would have won it for the last 40 years in a row. His life is a masterclass in perseverance. From battling brain cancer since birth, to pushing through years of unexplained health challenges, he rose to capture the 1984 Olympic Gold Medal and become one of the most beloved voices in sports broadcasting. Scott joins me to talk about his fantastic annual event, Scott Hamilton & Friends, benefiting the incredible work of the Scott Hamilton CARES Foundation. We dive into the star-studded lineup (including several Classic Rock stars), the mission behind his fundraising, and the impact his foundation continues to make. We also look ahead to February, when Scott returns to the NBC broadcast booth for the Winter Olympics in Italy, marking his 10th Olympic Games on the microphone—tying the legendary Dick Button. Scott shares what a day in the life of an Olympic commentator is like, how he prepares, and what to expect from a U.S. figure skating team loaded with medal contenders including Ilia Malinin, Alysa Liu, Isabeau Levito, and Amber Glenn. Scott also takes us inside key moments from his own career—from finishing dead last in his early competitions, to handling Olympic pressure, to the humbling conversation with the Ohio Governor about “Hometown Hero Syndrome,” which brought powerful perspective during his post-Gold whirlwind. We wrap with some fun stories about his guitar collection and his experience at Rock 'n Roll Fantasy Camp. Then we transition back to golf with one of the most innovative minds in the game—Terry Hashimoto, Co-Developer & Founder of Swing Balance and BodiTrak Golf, and Founder of Ai Sensor & ProScreen Ai. Terry has been a dominant figure in Canadian golf for decades, a Manitoba Golf Hall of Fame inductee, and one of the industry's most sought-after experts in biomechanics, balance, and golf technology. Terry updates us on the groundbreaking work he's doing in the AI space, including how the Ai Sensor app can “revitalize” an 11-year-old BodiTrak mat using a simple iPhone connection. We break down what golfers are actually seeing in those videos, how Lidar technology helps diagnose dysfunctional movement patterns, and how instructors can use normative values—based on age, height, gender, and weight—to create customized recovery and movement protocols for all 11 joints from head to ankle. We also dive deeper into weight shift, proper trail-leg loading, and how golfers can adjust when dealing with physical limitations like arthritis, old injuries, or—like in my case—ankle replacement surgeries. Terry shares practical, eye-opening ways players can compensate for mobility loss and still play great golf through smarter movement patterns. It's an inspiring, insightful, and energizing episode featuring two world-class individuals who continue to push boundaries in their respective arenas. Thank you for pressing play. Where golf legends live…and your game gets better.

On this episode of Performance People, in partnership with JP Morgan Private Bank, Georgie speaks with Vicky Gosling OBE, CEO of GB Snowsport, whose career has been shaped by one extraordinary defining moment.In 2013, Vicky was preparing to deploy to Afghanistan, leaving behind her young family for what she thought would be a demanding posting. Instead, a phone call redirected her life: she was being reassigned to lead on what would become the first-ever Invictus Games. Working alongside Prince Harry, Vicky helped build a global movement showcasing the power of adaptive sport and the resilience of wounded servicemen and women. That experience transformed her sense of purpose and has guided every leadership role since.Vicky reflects on how her 20-year military career instilled mission-first clarity, resilience and an unshakeable commitment to the people she serves. Those principles now underpin her work at GB Snowsport, where she and her team have transformed a relatively underfunded programme into one capable of producing world champions and genuine medal contenders heading into the Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina in February. From Mia Brookes and Zoe Atkin to Charlotte Bankes and Dave Ryding, she outlines where the British hopes lie.Candid, gripping and often hilarious, including the night she had to sleep in a budget hire car, Vicky's story is ultimately about belief, courage and what's possible when a team refuses to quit.Content warning: This episode includes mention of suicide and the loss of military colleagues.

From cross country skiing and running to ice hockey, sport has always been a big part of Minnesota native Annika Pasch's life. Today, she's added biathlon to her repertoire with the responsibility of managing health and wellness for the U.S. Biathlon Team as part of its partnership with University of Health. Pasch joined Heartbeat as she headed out to Europe for her second season wth the team.What motivated her to become an athletic trainer?“Just being an athlete, kind of identifying as an athlete myself for so long, just seeing the passion and the hard work that those athletes put into what can essentially become their career,” she said. “I just want to do everything I could to let them be successful. And that's a huge part of my job – just keeping that arrow pointed forward for someone to just keep on the track of success.”So what is health and wellness? And why is it important for athletes – and for all of us?“Health and wellness is what gets you through every day,” said Pasch. “And if you're not respecting your body and taking care of it 24 over seven, that's lost time. If you look at it as the athletes, it's their job.”Her background has taken her to basketball, hockey, and track. And one of the keys for her in her new role with U.S. Biathlon is her own background as a cross country skier.When describing her role to others who might not know what an athletic trainer does, she compares it as a cross between a physical therapist and an EMT. “A lot of the education and focus is on first response and emergency care,” she said. But today, a lot of energy goes into injury and illness prevention. “That's where that physical therapy, that rehab, the diagnostic piece comes into it,” she said. “And then layered within all of that in the education is pharmacology, general medicine, sports psychology, nutrition. We kind of get a little sprinkling of everything.”As a passionate cross country skier herself, she's now become one of biathlon's biggest fans. And, yes, she has picked up a biathlon rifle to try shooting. This winter, she will hopscotch around Europe as the U.S. Biathlon Team heads to Antholz for the Olympic Winter Games.Get to know Annika Pasch and the valuable support services she's bringing to biathletes in this episode of Heartbeat, the U.S. Biathlon podcast.

The goal of political art is to ask uncomfortable questions. The price was prison.Vitaly Shevchenko speaks to Maria Alyokhina, founding member of the Russian punk activist group Pussy Riot, about the power and the price of protest.Pussy Riot came to the world's attention with its Punk Prayer, an angry anti-Putin anthem performed in a Moscow church. Maria Alyokhina spent two years incarcerated in a penal colony as a result. It was worth it, she says, to show the world what life under President Putin was like. She was freed under an amnesty ahead of the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, but her ongoing activism saw her living under surveillance and then house arrest, eventually fleeing Russia in a dramatic escape. Today, she continues to challenge Putin's regime from outside her home country. Thank you to the Ukrainecast team for its help in making this programme.

There is a notion that observant Jews don't have a chance to be professional athletes. The notion that Shabbat is an impediment and a sheer lack of role models make it hard for young athletes to find their way to elite sport. AJ Edelman is one of the trailblazing athletes working to change those conditions. Without any of the supports offered by the classic winter-olympic pipeline, he taught himself the dangerous art of skeleton from watching YouTube videos and went on to compete for Israel in the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea. Since then, he has built out the Israeli bobsledding program, recruiting athletes and sponsors, and pushing his team to reach the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan. Jay and AJ discuss the challenging logistics of building an Olympic program from scratch, and the unique set of restrictions and responsibilities AJ feels as a chosen representative of the State of Israel.
