That’s a wrap! The regular season is in the books and the VGK are once again PACIFIC DIVISION CHAMPIONS! Eddie & Chris wrap up the regular season and hand out a couple of awards.
There is less than a week to go in the regular season and the VGK are one win away from clinching the Pacific Division and home ice in the first round. Eddie & Chris look back at the week that was and preview the last 4 games of the regular season.
The Vegas Golden Knights locked up a playoff spot the seventh time in eight seasons.
The beautiful thing about doing a podcast vs. being in traditional media is that there’s no need to mince words, be politically correct, or tap dance around hard truths. Eddie takes full advantage of that to open Episode 104.
WARNING! This episode begins with an extended profanity-laden rant about Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Emil Lilleberg and his blatantly dirty hit that knocked Tomas Hertl out of the game and out of the lineup for an undetermined length.
With Hertl, arguably the hottest player in the NHL and the VGK’s leading goal scorer sidelined, Coach Cassidy is going to have to make some significant line changes.
Eddie and Chris analyze the 3-0 homestand, the race for the all-important Pacific Division title, and what it will take for the VGK to reach the Western Conference Final and Stanley Cup.
All this and MUCH more on Hockey Knights in Vegas Episode 104: Emil Lilleberg Is a 5-Letter Word for a Cat.
If you’re at all into hockey and especially the Vegas Golden Knights, the first of the triple-digit podcasts from hockey mavens Eddie Rivkin and Chris Chapman is one not to miss. Episode One-Zero-Zero has on perhaps the most important guest in the Las Vegas hockey universe, head coach Bruce Cassidy. Bruce was hired by the VGK after the end of the 2022 season and the following June led the VGK to the Stanley Cup Finals, which the team won, for its first Cup, against the Florida Panthers four games to one. Bruce gives an excellent interview and you can see it in its entirety from around minute 14 to minute 30.
The VGK didn’t make a huge splash at the trade deadline like everybody hoped. They did, however, bring back Original Misfit Reilly Smith to the delight of the fans. Eddie & Chris wrap up the trade deadline and discuss the new arms race in the Western Conference.
The trade deadline is 48 hours away, and the league’s contenders are starting to make moves for their run to the Stanley Cup. The VGK will have somewhere between zero and 11.2 million to go shopping. Kelly McCrimmon has said repeatedly that the VGK will have a quiet year. Do you believe him? Eddie & Chris scour the league for what the VGK might have up their sleeve.
Despite a broken tripod and multiple technology issues, we got a great interview with Bruce Cassidy to celebrate our 100th Episode! It ain’t our prettiest episode, but listening to Bruce is worth the price of admission!
