Former NHL Goalie, and ‘Henrik Lundqvist career backup’, Martin Biron joins the pod! Biron provided insight on the Stanley Cup final goalie-duel between Adin Hill and Sergei Bobrovsky, why Devon Levi’s ‘embracing chaos’ philosophy should provide stability in the Sabres crease, and he identifies two intriguing goalies for NHL GM’s to target this off-season. Marty also reflected on his journey in the game, his French-Canadian roots (and accent), learning the fundamentals of goaltending, and a trip to Switzerland that changed the trajectory of his life.
In Headlines, the guys discuss a Game 3 to remember as the Panthers secured their first-ever Stanley Cup finals victory. Matthew Tkachuk’s late-game heroics prevailed again as Ray applauded the superstar forward’s CLUTCH factor. The guys talk concussion protocol as Tkachuk took a MONSTER hit from Keegan Kolesar and there was a noticeable delay in the ‘spotter’ intervening. Officiating in the finals is a hot-topic as Ray expresses why he thinks ‘letting the players play’ is the wrong outlook.
Jarmo Kekäläinen and the Columbus Blue Jackets bolstered their blueline with two blockbuster acquisitions in the past week! The guys discuss the 3-team deal that saw Ivan Provorov traded to the Blue Jackets, Danny Briere’s first move as Flyers GM, and LA Kings GM Rob Blake unloading Cal Peterson in a savvy cap-maneuver. The Damon Severson trade broke while recording the podcast, the guys broke down the now-former Devils defender’s fit on Columbus, and his 8-year contract extension.   
Pierre-Luc Dubois made headlines again as he pushes for a Tkachuk-like trade ahead of next season. The guys chat Winnipeg Jets off-season, the challenge GM Kevin Cheveldayoff has in attracting players to Winnipeg, and if Connor Hellebuyck could be a fit for the LA Kings.
Kris Abbott skips this episode as the Betano exec. is on a work trip to Greece. Ray & Dregs discuss a shift in odds after the Panthers big win, and if the ‘goal in the first 10 minutes’ trend will continue in Game 4. Check out the many prop-bet options available on Betano.ca!
