Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Connor Hellebuyck Wants Out Of Winnipeg! Will The Jets Oblige & Trade Him Away? | DLLS Stars Podcast
Q: What is the reaction in Winnipeg to the Hellebuyck news?
The Winnipeg market is reacting with cautious yet persistent interest; insiders expect a patient, calculated approach from the Jets while acknowledging the public trade request heightens scrutiny and fan pressure.
Are The Colorado Avalanche Still The Team To Beat In The Central Division?
Q: Conor, does Joe Sakic want to be the GM, or is he content watching and guiding from a distance?
Conor suggests Joe Sakic is a hockey guy who will step in when needed and that the organization values his leadership and experience; the role is situational and contingent on team needs, not a fixed plan.
Can Mike Babcock Be The Missing Piece To Get The Edmonton Oilers Over The Hump?
Q: How might Babcock's coaching style affect the top-line players who reportedly pushed for him?
There is belief that Babcock's emphasis on structure and accountability could push McDavid, Draisaitl, and Hyman to elevate their leadership and performance, though it could also create friction if the system clashes with players' preferred styles.
Can Mike Babcock Be The Missing Piece To Get The Edmonton Oilers Over The Hump?
Q: What is the mood in Edmonton after the Oilers' recent offseason moves and the Babcock hire?
The mood is cautiously optimistic but highly scrutinized; fans and insiders acknowledge high expectations and fear a quick backlash if results don't come early, especially with a star trio and questions around goaltending.
Hockey & Blues Hall Of Famer Bernie Federko Joins The Show! | DLLS Stars Podcast
Q: What do you think about Robert Thomas becoming captain and how that might affect the Blues going forward?
Federko explains that Thomas's long tenure with the team and leadership potential make him a natural choice, and he suggests Thomas will grow into the role with guidance from veterans and Steen's transition as captain.
