  • Best St. Louis Hockey Podcast

    Hockey Sense was always “must listen” radio when it was over the airwaves. Nothing has changed now that it’s a podcast. Strick always brings on great guests & shares insights & info about hockey around STL & the NHL.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 95 feat. St. Louis Blues Coach Jim Montgomery
Q: What is the next step for Joel Hofer and how will the goaltending situation be managed with Bennington?
Monty discusses keeping a strong tandem with Hofer and Bennington, recognizing Hofer's development while acknowledging Bennington's experience, and suggesting a shared pathway that develops both goalies while not overcommitting to a single net until the season progresses.
Episode 96 feat. Robert Thomas
Q: What was your draft day like for Robbie?
Robbie described a long, waiting day in Chicago with family around, the mix of excitement and nerves, and feeling relieved and grateful after being drafted.
Episode 93 feat. Sportsnet NHL Draft Analyst Jason Bukala
Q: Do you think it's better to draft the best player available vs. drafting to fill a need at the top of the draft class?
Best player available is generally the safer route early in the draft; it prevents over-prioritizing positional needs and opens long-term potential for the organization.
Episode 93 feat. Sportsnet NHL Draft Analyst Jason Bukala
Q: What is your reaction to Toronto winning the first overall pick and San Jose moving up to number two?
It creates a lot of draft intrigue and different strategic options for teams; San Jose has to decide how to balance offense with defense while Toronto has the luxury of first overall pick uncertainty.
Episode 92 feat. TSN’s Darren Dreger
Q: How do leaks around coaching changes affect teams?
Leaks are often orchestrated or leaked by one side to pressure the other, and such disclosures complicate decisions and can negatively impact players and staff; teams tolerate it only if it serves a strategic goal.
