Listen "Episode 2: Square Peg, Round Hole"
Episode Synopsis
James and Aidan kick off their second episode by examining the Boston Bruins’ strong start and the effect Charlie McAvoy’s return will have. They touch on Rick Bowness’ high-flying Jets before looking at a couple of teams lower in the standings; first, the Columbus Blue Jackets, now without Zach Werenski for the year, followed by the Calgary Flames, whose struggles haven’t yet drowned their playoff hopes. Switching gears to junior; Connor Bedard continues to pile up the points as James and Aidan compare his pace to other #1 overall picks. They move on to International hockey, first discussing how Canada will build around Bedard at (likely) his last World Juniors, followed by a word on the NHL’s decision to push the World Cup of Hockey back to 2025. They wrap up with a game of “Career Trajectories” and James’ thoughts on which current NHL teams in playoff positions will finish the year in a playoff spot. Podcast produced by Gareth Baird.
