Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Kings fire head coach: Puck Podcast March 1, 2026
Q: What are your thoughts on the Kings' decision to replace Jim Hiller with DJ Smith?
The hosts view it as a bold shift aimed at energizing the team and addressing underperformance, with attention paid to whether a more expressive, enthusiastic leadership style can re-ignite a playoff push.
5 NHL players not guilty: Puck Podcast July 27, 2025
Q: Doug, is there anything that I didn't include in here that you think I should have included, or just any thoughts in general on this story, on this case?
We've touched on these kinds of things off and on through our 20 years. Thankfully, not too much, but it is something that obviously has happened from time to time.
2 Playoff spots left: Puck Podcast April 13, 2025
Q: What are the expectations for the Senators facing the Maple Leafs in the playoffs?
Sens fans are confident; they've had the Leafs' number this season with a sweep in the regular season, and there's a sense of excitement for the rivalry matchup.
2 Playoff spots left: Puck Podcast April 13, 2025
Q: Do you consider the Senators rebuild complete?
Yes, the rebuild is complete as the team has the right pieces, including a solid goaltender and the right mix of veterans and young players to compete in the playoffs.
2 Playoff spots left: Puck Podcast April 13, 2025
Q: What is the health update on captain Brady Kachuk, who is not playing here at the end of the regular season?
Brady Kachuk is skating and if this were a playoff game, he would be playing, but the team is wisely giving him more rest since they've clinched a playoff spot.
