Opening Week Reflections & Storylines
The FAN Hockey Show - A podcast by Sportsnet
Matt Marchese and Mike Futa look back on the season's first weekend of hockey - Auston Matthews remaining pointless for a Leafs team led by offseason additions, Oilers' expectations getting to them and UHC's red-hot start. Prime studio analyst Thomas Hickey (17:44) discusses the weight of early-season expectations, sets the stage for Canadiens/Penguins on Prime Monday Night Hockey and shares how the Islanders have evolved after an offseason under Patrick Roy. Finally, Matt & Mike discuss the Avs' goalie emergency, the Red Wings waiving Ville Husson and whether the Canucks are in trouble early. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
