Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hello Hockey | Brantt Myhres & David Pagnotta | 11-15-25
Q: If you were coaching a team with listless play, what would you do to re-ignite them?
The guest emphasizes leadership by example, bringing in character players who can set the tone and hold teammates accountable, and being willing to make strategic roster moves to inject energy and accountability.
Hello Hockey | Peter Gubernator & David Pagnotta | 11-01-25
Q: What does Gooby consider when pricing a full custom skate?
He prices a full skate at 1500 USD with full boot art and a dye-treated holder option, 1000 USD without the dye process, and 800 USD for just the boot with customization, all in USD.
Hello Hockey | Rob Klinkhammer, Nigel Dawes & David Pagnotta | 11-08-25
Q: What stood out to you about adjusting to the KHL training regime?
Both players described a grueling, old-school, camp-heavy approach that demanded high endurance, with seven weeks of training and constant work before games, followed by a transition to more North American-style play later in their careers.
Hello Hockey | Irf Gaffar, Anthony Stewart & David Pagnotta | 12-13-25
Q: What initiated the Oilers' decision to upgrade their goaltending?
The guests discussed a combination of underperformance concerns, a belief that Skinner might not be the long-term solution, and a winter-ready revision of the goaltending plan that led to pursuing Jarry.
Hello Hockey - David Pagnotta - 12-06-25
Q: What is the status of Oilers goaltending talks or rumors circulating around Tristan Jarry?
Pagnotta says there isn't an imminent trade on the table; he notes rumblings exist but emphasizes relying on credible sources and that any substantial moves are more likely in the summer, with a goalie carousel anticipated.
