Summary
DYLAN LARKIN - WHAT A MOMENT FOR TEAM USA.
Tune in as we open by discussing the pure adrenaline in the USA vs. Canada 4 Nations Face-Off game as Matthew and Brady Tkachuk, Hagel, Bennett, and Parayko dropped gloves (00:00), before jumping into a full analysis, including Dylan Larkin's standout performance, Guentzel, Hellebuyck, Slavin, & others defeating McDavid, Crosby, MacKinnon, Binnington, & Team Canada. Also, we discuss whether Dylan Larkin should have a bigger role (5:05), and then get into how Lucas Raymond has similarly been excelling as one of Team Sweden's best players, and what these performances can mean when the two return to play for the Detroit Red Wings after the NHL season resumes (28:50).
We're then joined by legendary sportswrite and author Keith Gave to discuss his writings on Drpaer, Kocur, Maltby, McCarty, and The Grind Line, as well as his role in bringing The Russian Five over (with Federov and Konstantinov), his take on how Steve Yzerman, Todd McLellan, Larkin, Raymond, Moritz Seider, Patrick Kane, Alex DeBrincat, and the rest of the Hockeytown team is doing, & more (38:00).
Next, the NHL announcing the World Cup of Hockey & how this plus the IIHF-sanctioned Olympics have international hockey in the best spot in years (1:10:00) before we take your questions and comments in our Overtime segment (1:14:55) - enjoy!
