The Athletic Hockey Show25 Okt 2021

Craig Anderson joins the show, the Chicago Blackhawks set a dubious record, the Toronto Maple Leafs are in trouble already, Multiple Choice Madness, and much more

First, Ian and Hailey discuss the Seattle Kraken’s first home game, whether the franchise retiring jersey No. 32 for their fans was a cool move or not, and if the Minnesota Wild retiring No. 1 for their fanbase in their inaugural season was worse, the Vegas Golden Knights struggling with injuries, the Toronto Maple Leafs not looking right, the Chicago Blackhawks setting an NHL record for the longest start to a season without holding a lead, the San Jose Sharks unexpectedly getting off to a good start, and more.

Then, Buffalo Sabres netminder Craig Anderson joins the show to discuss the mood around the team right now, as they’re off to a nice start in the early goings of the season, Don Granato as a head coach, how the team is blocking out a lot of noise around the organization, Kyle Okposo’s resurgence, thoughts on a return to Ottawa against the Senators in January, and much more.

Plus, to close things out, Ian and Hailey run through a series of Multiple Choice Madness questions including which goalie not named Carey Price would inspire the most confidence for Team Canada heading into the Olympics, which team will be the last to lose this season, and what’s the most surprising thing to start this NHL season.
