Brady Tkachuk goes off on Brendan Lemieux after on-ice bite, Artemi Panarin throws glove at Brad Marchand, Arpon Basu talks Montreal Canadiens turmoil, the reignited Ovi-Crosby debate, a brand new Hailbag, Multiple Choice Madness, and more
First, Ian and Hailey discuss the Brady Tkachuk-Brendan Lemieux biting incident, Tkachuk’s blistering postgame comments, and how long a suspension Lemieux should face, Artemi Panarin’s perfect glove throw at Brad Marchand at the end of the Boston Bruins-New York Rangers game last Friday, and what sparked the incident to begin with, the reignited Alex Ovechkin vs. Sidney Crosby debate, Fenway Sports Group purchasing the Pittsburgh Penguins for $900 million, and more.
Then, The Athletic’s own Arpon Basu joins the show to talk about this tumultuous time for the Montreal Canadiens and discuss the firing of now-former GM Marc Bergevin, Jeff Gorton joining the organization as executive vice president of hockey operations, why it’s important that the next GM is bilingual, if the Habs are now in an official rebuild, Carey Price’s status, and more.
Plus, a brand new Hailbag featuring questions about NHL player participation in the Olympics potentially being in peril and which team currently has the bleakest outlook: Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, or Ottawa Senators, and, to close things out, Multiple Choice Madness questions including who will end up playing more NHL games in the future: Evander Kane or Matt Murray, and which Wednesday night matchup is the most interesting.
