Episode 229 featuring Chris Pronger

Riley Cote and Derek Settlemyre start the show talking about the Flyers going 3-0 on the Phans of Philly trip to California, Tippett, Cates, and Michkov’s hot streaks, Garrett Wilson’s call-up, and the recent injuries. Chris Pronger came in studio for an interview! Prongs talks to us about his new book, shares some stories from early in his career about failures and pushing back, being more engaged in the NHL recently, and if he has any interest in joining a team in a front office role. Jumping into some Flyers talk we discuss their season thus far and how the rebuild is going, the coaching job Rick Tocchet has done this season, Matvei Michkov’s development, Jamie Drysdale’s improvement, Trevor Zegras’ resurgence, and Owen Tippett’s ups and downs. We dive into the job Danny Briere has done as GM, the Robert Thomas trade rumors, Radko Gudas’ hit on Auston Matthews, the chaos in Toronto, and the NHL player safety controversy. Wrapping it up Prongs gives us his Stanley Cup pick and we crack a couple jokes about the USA vs Canada Gold Medal Game.
