On the Wednesday roundtable with Rob Pizzo of CBC Sports and Jesse Granger and Sara Civian from the Athletic, we discuss the NHL players Associations desire to tighten COVID-19 protocols in Vegas during all-star weekend, ahead of many of the all-star players then moving on to Beijing to compete in the Winter Olympics. Our panel also discusses the Islanders struggles on the ice and in the medical room, plus the unstoppable Carolina Hurricanes, and if Connor McDavid can begin another lengthy point streak, with his 17 game streak being snapped Monday night vs Dallas.
Dom Luszczyszyn - our analytics expert at the Athletic stops by to discuss NHL third jerseys, gambling and his awesome 'What If' column, answering hypothetical things that will never happen in the NHL.
This week in our twitter segment, we offer our analysis on Team USA and Team Canada's Olympic jerseys and who we think the next head coach will be to lose his job, in the NHL.
