Airing of Grievances

Despite a seemingly rough January, the Florida Panthers end the month on top of the Atlantic.  Jacob, TJ, and Alex talk about the numbers behind the first month of 2025, some names to keep an eye on going forward, and some Four Nations Face-Off.

Did you know that Sasha Barkov was allowed to go forehand in the shootout?  Jacob, TJ, and Alex discuss a tough run of games, Spencer Knight's strong recent performances, and some questionable officiating (now that Alex is out of the hospital).  The boys open up the mailbag to answer questions about the scoring slump, Spencer starting, and potential returns for a theoretical Sam Bennett trade.

We have activated Alex Lopez (upper body) from LTIR.  Jacob, TJ, and Alex discuss the Panthers' recent scoring slump and whether or not it's time to worry (spoiler alert: it's not).  The boys go over some preliminary trade deadline targets and give their thoughts on the Panthers' Quarter-Century team.

Happy holidays!  Jacob, TJ, and Alex fawn over Sam Reinhart (again).  What concerns remain for the Panthers as we approach the halfway point of the season?  How should the Panthers approach the expiring contracts of Sam Bennett and Aaron Ekblad?  What is wrong with hockey in the entire state of New York?

The Florida Panthers (and more specifically Matthew Tkachuk) are BACK.  Jacob and TJ discuss a very strong recovery from the November skid, the resurgence of the Rat King, and some impressive performances from Mackie Samoskevich.  Around the league, the Sharks are having fun!  The Sabres... aren't.

USA.  Canada.  Sweden.  Finland.  Long ago, the Four Nations lived in harmony.  Then everything changed when the tournament rosters were announced.  Jacob, Alex, and TJ are back to discuss the highs, lows, and surprises of the freshly released Four Nations Face-Off rosters.  Alex gives his take on Spencer Knight's recent performances.

Jacob and TJ discuss a few recent losses (and why they shouldn't concern you), the Eastern Conference playoff picture (no, seriously), and what is happening to the Boston Bruins.

Jacob, Alex, and TJ recap a wildly successful Finland trip, the Panthers' defense, and Sam Reinhart's incredible start to the season.

The captain is back!  Jacob, Alex, and TJ discuss the New York road trip, Aleksander Barkov's triumphant return, and some fun facts about Finnish NHL players.

They lost 5-1 but it's October...
