This Summer Cooler features one of the most fascinating—and fragile—franchises in the NHL: the Edmonton Oilers.Despite being two-time defending Western Conference champions, the Oilers have no Cup to show for it, and now they face the biggest storyline in the NHL heading into 2025–26:

In this Summer Coolers episode of NHL Wraparound, hosts Neil Smith and Vic Morren dive into the state of the Calgary Flames—a team coming off a surprising 2024–25 campaign that ended in heartbreak. Despite being one of the league's feel-good stories down the stretch, the Flames missed the playoffs for the third consecutive season, falling short via regulation win tiebreaker to the St. Louis Blues.With no major additions and two notable losses—Dan Vladar to Philadelphia and Anthony Mantha to Pittsburgh—the Flames opted to run it back with nearly the same lineup. The big question: Is that enough in an improving Western Conference?The hosts break down what Calgary retained, highlight the need for scoring help, and examine whether Dustin Wolf can carry the goaltending load without proven backup support.IN THIS EPISODE:[00:00] Recap: Flames just miss postseason on tiebreaker[00:38] No outside additions, just internal retention[01:00] Breaking down the J.J. Peterka trade & what was lost[01:45] Offensive challenges: 29th in NHL in goals per game[02:00] Who's back: Coronado, Kevin Bahl, Morgan Frost, Joel Hanley[03:00] Jonathan Huberdeau's contract vs. performance[04:00] Goaltending outlook: Dustin Wolf as the No. 1[04:30] Lack of experience behind Wolf with Devin Cooley[05:00] Blue line leadership & future of Rasmus Andersson[05:30] Zayne Parekh and the hope of future upside[06:00] Why a wildcard is the best-case scenarioKEY TAKEAWAYS:Calgary's quiet offseason is a head-scratcher, especially with $15M+ in cap space unused.Dustin Wolf is the new starter in goal, but with no experienced backup, the position remains fragile.Jonathan Huberdeau's contract (still one of the NHL's worst value deals) looms large until his production returns.Rasmus Andersson's future is a trade deadline storyline to watch as he enters the final year of his deal.The Flames didn't upgrade—and in a stronger Pacific Division, standing still might equal regression.RESOURCE LINKS:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgBj1LV0-DMfBhcRPSJZLjAX (Twitter): https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nhlwraparoundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61555451139787#NHL #Hockey #Podcast #CalgaryFlames #DanVladar #AnthonyMantha #KevinBahl #RasmusAndersson #JoelHanley #MackenzieWeegar #JakeBean #MattCoronato #AdamKlapka #MorganFrost #JustinKirkland #JonathanHuberdeau #NazemKadri #DustinWolf #DevinCooley #ZayneParekh

Good news for Lakers fans this Labor Day Weekend as Luka Doncic continues to dominate (even if Slovenia isn't) in Euro basketball. Tune in as the guys from the LFB share thoughts on his dominance so far, and if this is a sign of an MVP year to come. But with Luka's great play, the continued question arises as to whether the Lakers have built a team that's as capable as he is in winning basketball games in a tough Western Conference. The guys discuss that, and after today's signing of Giannis' brother in Milwaukee, it's a sign that he's not going anywhere anytime soon. All this, and we decide who is better: Thanasis or Bronny? LeBron's son or the brother of Giannis?

The hosts wrap up the Summer Cooler series focusing on the Pacific Division where the Edmonton Oilers have represented the Western Conference in the past two Stanley Cup Finals though the division sent only three teams to the playoffs in 2025.IN THIS EPISODE[01:44] - Edmonton Oilers - The most compelling question for the upcoming campaign is whether enough has been done to keep impending UFA Connor McDavid in the fold beyond this season. And, if so, for how long?[11:41] - Vegas Golden Knights - The biggest off-season move was authored by the VGK in acquiring Mitch Marner from the Maple Leafs. The franchise consistently operates in the "now and we'll worry about the future when we get there."[19:37] - Los Angeles Kings - After finally having everything in their favor in the opening round, the Kings still managed to fall for a fourth straight spring to the Oilers. Can a bunch of older free agents move this team forward in 2026?[28:47] - Calgary Flames - One of the real surprises in 2024-25 re-signed many of their own players as opposed to adding any free agents. Not much room for error with an offensively challenged team that won't be sneaking up on anyone in the new season.[36:29]- Vancouver Canucks - If there's an opposite to the Flames, it the Canucks who entered 2024-25 with high expectations only to go through a tumultuous season. Rookie head coach Adam Foote takes over a team with a much lower bar heading into the new campaign.[44:14] - Anaheim Ducks - A team many are looking at to take a big step forward, the Ducks do so with the second winningest coach in NHL history, returning to the best for the first time in almost four years.[52:37] - Seattle Kraken - In the spirit of Pacific Division continuity, there's the 2024-25 overachiever, the underachiever, the up-and-comer and the status quo. The fifth year Kraken somewhat fit into that category, even with a new head coach.[1:02:01] - San Jose Sharks - Yes, reason for optimism in the Bay Area. While pushing the Western bubble would still be a long shot, their youth down the middle is set to become the cornerstone of the franchise for the next decade.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #ShortShifts #NYCentric #StanleyCupdate #NeilSmith #VicMorren #NHL #SummerCoolers #Loogaroo #AnaheimDucks # #BostonBruins #BuffaloSabres #CalgaryFlames #CarolinaHurricanes #ChicagoBlackhawks #ColoradoAvalanche #ColumbusBlueJackets #DallasStars #DetroitRedWings #EdmontonOilers #FloridaPanthers #LosAngelesKings #MinnesotaWild #MontrealCanadiens #NashvillePredators #NewJerseyDevils #NewYorkIslanders #NewYorkRangers #OttawaSenators #PhiladelphiaFlyers #PittsburghPenguins #StLouisBlues #SanJoseSharks #SeattleKraken #TampaBayLightning #TorontoMapleLeafs #UtahMammoth #VancouverCanucks #VegasGoldenKnights #WashingtonCapitals #WinnipegJets #ConnorMcDavid #LeonDraisaitl #StanBowman #EvanderKane #ViktorArvidsson #CoreyPerry #ConnorBrown #JohnKlingberg #JeffSkinner #TrentFrederic #KasperiKapanen #EvanBouchard #AndrewMangiapane #CurtisLazar #IsaacHoward #RileyStillman #ZachHyman #VasilyPodkolzin #RyanNugent-Hopkins #MatthewSavoie #MattiasJanmark #AdamHenrique #MattiasEkholm #DarnellNurse #BrettKulak #JakeWalman #TyEmberson #StuartSkinner #CalvinPickard #MitchMarner #NickRoy #MarkStone #TomasHertl #WilliamKarlsson #ReillySmith #BrandonSaad #JeremyLauzon #ColtonSissons #NicolasHague #JaycobMegna #TannerPearson #VictorOlofsson #AlexPietrangelo #SheaTheodore #BraydenMcNabb #NoahHanafin #ZachWhitecloud #BruceCassidy #KaedanKorczak #BrettHowden #KeeganKolesar #PavelDorofeyev #JackEichel #IvanBarbashev #AdinHill #AkiraSchmid #SergeiBobrovsky #KenHolland #JoelArmia #CodiCeci #BrianDumoulin #RobBlake...

A podcast, only 3 months after our last one. We talk a bit briefly about a few matches from the past three months, including wins, yes WINS over Seattle, the Leagues Cup, um, debacle, and Open Cup. Then afterwards we dive into the ins/outs of the Transfer Window, noting that this was a particularly great window for the Loons, even though they left it late. After that we briefly break down the run-ins for the Top 3 in the Western Conference, which, spoiler alert, includes the Loons Finally, brief recaps of our beloved lower division teams, MPLS City SC and Aurora FC.

In this episode of Make City Make Spence, Sean, Garret, and Adam break down Detroit City FC's last two matches and spotlight the team's recent surge in form. They also preview some crucial upcoming clashes against Western Conference opponents as the men's squad fights for a playoff spot in the East.In the second half, the trio unpacks the Northern Guard Supporters' recently released statement addressing the dismissal of two club legends, the club's communication approach, and the team's inconsistent performances this season. Finally, they ask the big question: is the club doing enough to share its own story?

The Western Conference gets the stage starting with the Central Division in the third of four Summer Cooler shows.IN THIS EPISODE[02:31] - Winnipeg Jets - The defending Presidents' Trophy winners fell short in the second round of the playoffs. They face a new world with the departure of star wing Nikolaj Ehlers to Carolina.[14:56] - Dallas Stars - Always positioning themselves for a deep run, something always seems to happen in "Big D" when the stakes raise in the playoffs. A coach getting a second chance in Dallas has the opportunity to reverse that trend.[25:55] - Colorado Avalanche - Since winning the Stanley Cup in 2022, the Avs have won a single playoff series since. Is this high-octane team getting a reputation of being more sizzle than steak?[34:52] - Minnesota Wild - Though finally getting out from under massive dead cap space, the Wild haven't exactly wowed anyone during the off-season.[43:24] - St. Louis Blues - No team made more of an about-face in 2024-25. Despite a heartbreaking opening round loss to Winnipeg, all indications point to a team that will be very stiff to play against in the new season.[53:58] - Utah Mammoth - With a season under their belt in Salt Lake City, the time has come for the newly-named Utah Mammoth to make some inroads after five consecutive playoffs misses going back to their days in Arizona.[1:05:20] - Nashville Predators - The team with the big free agent splash a year ago was the biggest disappointment of 2024-25. The summer of '25 has been quiet. Has GM Barry Trotz simply written off last season as a bad year to the point he's willing to go with much the same lineup starting in October? [1:13:05] - Chicago Blackhawks - Long-suffering fans in the Windy City will have a new head coach behind the bench. Still, Connor Bedard and co. appear to have more lean years ahead.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #ShortShifts #NYCentric #StanleyCupdate #NeilSmith #VicMorren #NHL #SummerCoolers #Loogaroo #AnaheimDucks # #BostonBruins #BuffaloSabres #CalgaryFlames #CarolinaHurricanes #ChicagoBlackhawks #ColoradoAvalanche #ColumbusBlueJackets #DallasStars #DetroitRedWings #EdmontonOilers #FloridaPanthers #LosAngelesKings #MinnesotaWild #MontrealCanadiens #NashvillePredators #NewJerseyDevils #NewYorkIslanders #NewYorkRangers #OttawaSenators #PhiladelphiaFlyers #PittsburghPenguins #StLouisBlues #SanJoseSharks #SeattleKraken #TampaBayLightning #TorontoMapleLeafs #UtahMammoth #VancouverCanucks #VegasGoldenKnights #WashingtonCapitals #WinnipegJets #NikolajEhlers #ColePerfetti #AdamLowry #ConnorHellebuyck #JonathanToews #GabrielLandeskog #MasonAppleton #BrandonTanev #DominicToninato #GustavNyquist #ColeKoepke #TannerPearson #PhilDiGiuseppe #WalkerDuehr #HadynFleury #MorganBarron #GabeVilardi #DylanSamberg #KevinCheveldayoff #MarkScheifele #KyleConnor #VladislavNamestnikov #JoshMorrissey #DylanDemelo #NealPionk #LukeSchenn #ScottArniel #GlenGulutzan #PeterDeBoer #JakeOettinger #JimNill #JamieBenn #TylerSeguin #MattDuchene #ColinBlackwell #NilsLundkvist #MavrikBourque #RadekFaksa #NathanBastain #MasonMarchment #MikaelGranlund #CodiCeci #EvgeniiDadonov #MattDumba #RoopeHintz #WyattJohnston #JasonRobertson #MikkoRantanen #SamSteele #OskarBack #MiroHeiskanen #EsaLindell #ThomasHarley #IlyaLyubushkin #LianBichsel #CaseyDeSmith #JaredBednar #NathanMacKinnon #CaleMakar #BrentBurns #VictorOlofsson #GavinBrindley #CharlieCoyle #MilesWood #BrockNelson #ParkerKelly #JoshManson #JoelKiviranta #JonathanDrouin #RyanLindgren #JimmyVesey #IvanIvan #DevonToews #SamGirard #SamMalinski #MackenzieBlackwood #ScottWedgewood #ValNichushkin #JackDrury #RossColton #MartinNecas #ArtturiLehkonen #Marc-AndreFleury #FrederickGaudreau #JustinBrazeau...

Luka Doncic came back from a scare last week in preparing for the EuroBasket competition, as he suffered a right knee contusion. But getting a quick clearance to play, Luka dominated with 28 points, 10 assists, and six rebounds as Slovenia cruised by Great Britain in exhibition (friendly) play.

Kevin O'Connor is joined by Wosny Lambre to hand out offseason grades across the Eastern and Western Conferences, and EuroBasket. The duo debate Luka Doncic's weight loss: is it functional or cosmetic? And will it do the Lakers any good regardless? Do the New York Knicks get a good grade for moving on from Thibs and hiring Mike Brown? And did the Orlando Magic make the right move by adding Desmond Bane? The also pair break down if Utah was right to keep Lauri Markkanen during their rebuild, and react to Giannis's loyalty to Milwaukee (so far).Out West, they question if the Warriors' front office is really all-in on winning a title, celebrate Denver's upgrade from MPJ to Cam Johnson, and push back on the hype surrounding OKC's long-term dynasty odds. Can OKC really keep talent in a small market or are their hopes of a repeat title already over?(0:25) NBA Offseason Grades(0:47) Luka's weight loss journey(6:06) Utah Jazz keeping Lauri Markkanen(11:19) Giannis stays loyal to the Bucks…so far(26:40) Myles Turner leaves Indiana for Milwaukee(30:44) Knicks roster changes(38:22) Pistons shuffle their roster(43:41) Magic roster shake-up(50:01) Jonathan Kuminga's offseason approach(55:21) Nuggets replacement of MPJ(58:26) OKC only re-signs their own guys(1:08:43) Who will win each conference?

The Lakers' schedule in full got released earlier today, and the guys from the LFB are going over it with a fine-toothed comb as they look at the peaks (and valleys) for this upcoming season. They look at which periods could potentially be easier, and which may be tougher in their climb up the Western Conference.
