Summary

Jeff Marek and ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski kick off this week's edition of MvsW discussing the hockey slang of today and the best hockey nicknames. Then, the pair weigh in on Jon Cooper's announcement that Andrei Vasilevskiy could return to the lineup at some point during Tampa’s three-game road trip, how his return might impact the goalie market, and more. Later, they chat about how the hockey world is approaching the Oilers' underwhelming season, the Blues' mentality on the blueline, Jordan Binnington re-establishing himself in St. Louis, Patrik Laine’s relationship with the Blue Jackets' front office, and more. 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.
