“The Michigan” innovator Mike Legg joins the show, Gary Bettman’s reaction to Rocky Wirtz’s town hall outburst, Trevor Zegras should’ve won the ASG Breakaway Challenge, Canada-USA women’s hockey rivalry, Multiple Choice Madness, and more

First, Ian and guest cohost Julian McKenzie discuss Chicago Blackhawks owner Rocky Wirtz’s wild town hall comments in response to The Athletic’s own Mark Lazerus’ question about what the Blackhawks organization is doing to prevent another Kyle Beach situation, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman’s unsurprising reaction to the Wirtz outburst, the silliness of Alex Pietrangelo winning the NHL All-Star Game Breakaway Challenge over the likes of Trevor Zegras, Jack Hughes, and Alex DeBrincat, and more.


Then, former University of Michigan star and innovator of the lacrosse-style, wrap-around goal, now known as “The Michigan”, Mike Legg joins the show for a fun interview to talk about the origins of the move, why it’s not referred to as “The Legg”, how he feels about younger players like Trevor Zegras and Andrei Svechnikov iterating the move in the NHL, getting threats about using the move again from opposing players throughout his pro career, what he’s up to now, and much more.


Plus, to close things out, Ian and Julian give their thoughts on the Canada-USA women’s hockey rivalry as one of the best in sports, in light of a Toronto Star article suggesting women’s hockey shouldn’t even be at the Olympics, as well as a couple of Multiple Choice Madness questions including if you take Trevor Zegras out of the competition, who of Jack Hughes, Kirill Kaprizov, and Alex DeBrincat should’ve won the ASG Breakaway Challenge, and whether players should be obligated to buy gifts for a teammate they indirectly injure in practice or not.
