Listen "Canada Comes Out on Top + What's up With Rantanen?"
Episode Synopsis
Another week, another episode of the Second Look Hockey Podcast! Dave Leo and Cristian Ceniti are back to weigh in on Canada’s 3-2 (OT) victory against USA in the 4 Nations Final. They discuss the hype going into the game, Jordan Binnington’s heroics, and Connor McDavid’s overtime clincher. Later, the duo discusses the momentum behind the NHL coming out of this tournament. Can the league take advantage of record ratings, a lacklustre NBA All-Star event and MLB’s split with ESPN to increase hockey’s popularity? Dave and Cristian wrap up their 4 Nations thoughts by analyzing the injury fallout before taking a brief look ahead to the 2026 Olympic rosters with some ‘way too early’ takes. Afterwards, the conversation shifts back to the NHL, where rumours of Mikko Rantanen being offered a ‘nine-figure’ deal have surfaced. Will the Carolina Hurricanes be able to extend the recently acquired star forward ahead of the trade deadline? Meanwhile, Seth Jones has requested a trade out of Chicago, but will contenders be interested in the Blackhawks blueliner? Dave and Cristian discuss.
