Episode 37- Champions League of Hockey Point Shot

    • Hockey

Joshua, Sean, and Bill roundtable during the NHL All Star festivities to talk about the ASG weekend and how the Skills Competition went the night prior (Zegras...my GOODNESS!) and how the NHL could better market the All Star Game or make it more interesting to watch. Could it be better with the draft format back? More alumni? More guests? A Rising Stars format to run alongside it like the NBA does? 

Then with the announcement that the World Cup of Hockey could return for 2024, the crew discuss how that format could look and whether that makes up for the Olympics or whether it could be better. Sean pitches his dream tournament concept of a Champions League of Hockey where the champions of respective leagues throughout International Hockey face off in a tournament to decide what team is the World's best. Could a team from the KHL or a Euro league upset the NHL champions?

Plenty of love for the Olympic Women's hockey being played out right now at Beijing 2022, Canada again flexing as a powerhouse led by Marie-Philip Poulin and young guns like Sarah Fillier. Can anyone compete with Canada and the USA?

As the March 21st NHL trade deadline slowly approaches, Sean and Joshua talk about the emergence of Conor Garland rumours and what that could mean for the Vancouver Canucks' plans for the future. Prepare for fireworks!
