In the Dome: Hockey tactics & Flames talk with Jack Han - EP 7 - S4

Season 4, Ep. 7

Today we are joined by the one and only Jack Han. Jack is a hockey analyst and consultant focusing on tactics and player development. He has worked at both the AHL and NHL levels with the Toronto Marlies and Maple Leafs as a coach and analyst.

We discussed a range of topics including:

  • Jonathan Huberdeau's strengths and weaknesses as a player and how, despite surface-level similarities, he and Johnny Gaudreau have different skill sets.
  • How Huberdeau can adjust to Darryl Sutter's style of hockey
  • How Nazem Kadri can help the Flames matchup against Connor McDavid and the Oilers
  • Mackenzie Weegar's game and how he slots on the Flames blueline
  • What we can expect from Tyler Toffoli this season
  • How Darryl Sutter's coaching style and the system work in the modern NHL
  • Jack's perspective on developing stagnated players such as Juuso Valimaki
  • And more!


Plus, we had to fit in a quick check-in on training camp.

Be sure to follow Jack on Twitter and check out his fantastic blog. His new video workshop, Analytics for Hockey Coaches, is available here, and, if you're a hockey nerd like me, I highly suggest supporting his work by picking up a copy of Hockey Tactics 2022: The Playbook.

  • 24. The tank race is coming down to the wire!

    01:01:40||Season 7, Ep. 24
    With eight games remaining the Flames find themselves STILL in a prime tank position (despite their little heater on the homestand). With a tough sked coming up (mostly on the road) we're crossing our fingers the boys can secure the bag and finish in the bottom three. Oh, and one other thing...our old friend, pal, buddy, and fearless leader, Boston Pizza Jr errhhh I mean Brad Treliving, is out of a job in Toronto. WE WARNED THEM! Go Flames Go.
  • 23. We may never lose again, again

    51:07||Season 7, Ep. 23
    No Kadri, Weegar, Andersson? No problem apparently. The Flames are somehow HOT despite being a skeleton crew...a little TOO hot tbh. We're breaking down the four game winning streak that has Flames fans experiencing a little PTSD as we hurdle towards the draft lottery. LET'S KEEP SIGHT OF MISSION MCKENNA HERE GUYS.Go Flames Go
  • 22. Tank looking immaculate

    01:01:47||Season 7, Ep. 22
    The post Nazem Kadri and Mack Weegar era is here. And in terms of the tank...it's going just as Craig Conroy planned. Only15 games left...MAXIMUM TANK CARNAGE.
  • 21. Craig Conroy Masterclass

    01:08:35||Season 7, Ep. 21
    We asked for trades and boys...Craig Conroy ABSOLUTELY DELIVERED. Mackenzie Weegar and Nazem Kadri have new homes, the Flames have an infinity gauntlet of picks and prospects, and Flames fans can FINALLY have some peace of mind as we are officially, unequivocally, without a doubt rebuilding. IN CONNY WE TRUST. WE ARE HEADED TO TOTAL CALGARY FLAMES VICTORY,GO FLAMES GO
  • 20. We need trades

    46:15||Season 7, Ep. 20
    Trade deadline is just days away and for once(!) it seems the Flames have assets everybody wants and prices seem to be set pretty, pretty, high. We're hoping (more like dying) to see some action here. Get ur Kadri's, ur Coleman's, ur Hanley's here...EVERYTHING MUST GO.
  • 19. Gold for Gaudreau

    40:13||Season 7, Ep. 19
    It's back to reality now for Flames fans but what an incredible 2 weeks of hockey. It was a tough loss for Team Canada in an unbelievably close game...but in the end it was meant to be for the Americans and we can't even be mad. That one was for Johnny.
  • 18. In the Dome + McDavid Alliance? 🇨🇦

    35:20||Season 7, Ep. 18
    Our bodies and minds are healing as we get a break from Flames hockey to watch the best in the world go head to head at the Olympics. It seems like the USA and Canada are on a collision course. We're breaking down what we've seen from both clubs in the first week of games.Go Flames Go
  • 17. Swiss Cheese

    01:03:30||Season 6, Ep. 17
    Yo buddies, the Flames whooped the Oilers AGAIN for a third time this season last night, taking the season series in decisive fashion. We're breaking down the barnburner last night at the Dome, looking towards the trade deadline, and getting stoked on the future of the team being built on the likes of Matvei Gridin, Zp19, and company (Conny just might be cooking up an elite rebuild).Go Flames Go.
  • 16. Y'all got any more of those trades?

    01:00:38||Season 7, Ep. 16
    Alright, homies the Flames are coming off winless week (YAY tank) following the Rasmus Andersson trade and the trade rumours are heating up. We're talking Nazem Kadri, Blake Coleman, and others and why Conny needs to strike while the iron is HOT.Go Flames Go.
