  • 70. Milan Games & Team USA ft. Ryan Whitney

    01:08:58||Season 3, Ep. 70
    Kick off your morning with the messiest, loudest NHL conversations on Morning Cuppa Hockey as Colby Cohen is back in the host chair for a loaded episode that goes from Olympic memories to Beanpot chaos and a full breakdown of Team USA.Ryan Whitney joins the show off the hop to relive the 2010 Olympic Silver Medal run — from what that entire season felt like leading up to Vancouver, to where he was when he got the call that he made Team USA. Whitney reflects on being the “glue guy” in a room full of superstars, what the Olympic Village experience was really like, and how quickly the emotional intensity ramps up compared to a Stanley Cup Playoff series. He also shares his thoughts on this year’s U.S. squad, identifies an X-Factor, weighs in on whether the Beanpot still hits the same way today, and reacts to the overtime rule change.Then, the focus shifts to the current Team USA roster. The guys break down the projected lines — Guentzel-Matthews-Boldy, the Tkachuk-Eichel-Tkachuk trio, Connor-Larkin-Thompson, and the Miller-Nelson-Hughes unit — along with Trocheck and Keller as extra forwards. On the back end: Hughes/McAvoy, Slavin/Faber, Hanifin/Werenski, Sanderson, with Hellebuyck expected to start Game 1. What does being named captain mean for Auston Matthews and his legacy? Is Jack Hughes’ stock slipping after a tough Four Nations showing? Should Clayton Keller have a bigger role? And just how much deeper does the defense look with Quinn Hughes back in the mix?Grab your coffee, drop your takes in the comments, and don’t forget to like and subscribe.🏒 #HockeyTalk #NHLPowered by @bet365.
