Regressing to the mean since 2015, it's the Hockey PEDEOCast with your host, Dmitri

Filipovich.

Welcome to the Hockey PEDEOCast. My name is Ditri Filipovich. And joining me is my good buddy, Kevin Woodley. Kevin, what's going on, man?

It's just excited to be watching hockey that matters again. It's that time of year, right? We get to see whether what we think was going to happen is going to happen. And then small samples like it's yeah like let's get

into it man it's it's that time of year it's going to be a fun one we uh usually we're in studio here

together uh we're recording this remotely today because you're already playing through injury

even though we're uh we're in week one of the season but uh we're going to have some fun anyways

and i've got a really fun exercise ahead for us we're going to have some fun anyways.

And I've got a really fun exercise ahead for us because I wanted to have you on opening week here, even though we've had a couple games so far and we will talk about a

couple of goalies that have already made their season debuts.

I wanted to run through my list of goalies.

I'm particularly intrigued by this season to watch them, of course, to track

their progression and their performance, to just see how they do. And the criteria can be anything.

Like there's guys who I think are poised for a breakout, some who could bounce back potentially,

and I want to see if they do others in new spots some that

have a chance to build off of last year and really cement their status as a top goalie in this league

some who are just downright fun to watch and I enjoy tuning into their games and so we're going to see

how many of them we can get through but I thought I'd pitch you on all of them and go through them in order. And then I'll clear out, I'll give you some ISO ball time, let you cook and see where you can tell us from the technical side of things and sort of what you're expecting from them. Was there any goalie this year? Because last year you wowed us with the with the insider stories about vasilevsky's off-season training

and everything that came with that.

Do you have anyone that comes to mind that fits that oak this season that you can talk about?

Well, that's a good question, actually.

You know, not so much.
