Sports Events Guide is proud to present their hockey podcast, On the Power Play with Ben and Dave. Join Ben Kerr and Dave Gove each week as they take a look around the Hockey World focusing on the big issues of the NHL and elsewhere.
The boys are back and looking at the news from around the NHL.
OTPP: Michel Therrien, Claude Julien, Gustav Nyquist, Mike Illitch and More
The Montreal Canadiens have made a coaching change. Michel Therrien is out and Claude Julien is in. What does this mean for the team? What is the biggest area the Julien can help them improve? Was Therrien’s firing deserved? How does the meeting between Carey Price, Max Pacioretty, Shea Weber and Marc Bergevin play into this? We go in depth on this issue.
Next up a look at the passing of Detroit Red Wings owner Mike Illitch. We look at how he made the Detroit Red Wings the NHL’s model franchise over the past 25 years. What did the Wings do well, and why are they set to miss the playoffs for the first time in a quarter century?
Speaking of the Red Wings, Gustav Nyquist lost his mind this week, spearing Jared Spurgeon of the Minnesota Wild in the face. What did the boys think of the play and what is an appropriate suspension.
Sidney Crosby just keeps on scoring, picking up his 999th point on Tuesday night. On the precipice of 1000 career points, we examine Crosby’s career and where he stands historically.
We also look at Craig Anderson returning to the Ottawa Senators. How far can the Senators go?
All that and more in this edition of On the Power Play.
