Morning Cuppa Hockey

A loaded Morning Cuppa Hockey as we dive straight into the Trouba hit discourse. Was it clean or dirty? With Tom Wilson weighing in and Spencer Carbery frustrated over Ryan Leonard being “engaged” with another player at the moment of impact, the conversation around intent, responsibility, and on-ice etiquette takes center stage. Then, because hockey is hockey, Trouba scores the very next night against Chicago while Anaheim continues to look legitimately dangerous in the Pacific mix.Next we'll recap a busy weekend across the NHL. Jack Eichel buries the OT winner for Vegas, Boomer Esiason jumps into the discourse on social, Macklin Celebrini remains tied with Connor McDavid for the league lead in assists, and the Sharks stun Carolina. Colorado keeps rolling—but recent history warns us what happens when teams cruise wire-to-wire like Boston and Tampa did.Finally, our "Cuppa College" segment Presented by OutWest with Pat Ferschweiler. Fersch joins the show to break down Western Michigan’s weekend split with Minnesota Duluth and the bounce-back win in Game 2. William Whitelaw continues to impress with two goals, including the OT winner, and we dive into what has fueled his jump this season, how a championship group stays motivated, and which standouts fans should circle heading into the second half. Plus—stories from Detroit featuring legends Pavel Datsyuk and Henrik Zetterberg, and what rookie Dylan Larkin looked like. 🏒 #HockeyTalk #NHLPowered by @bet365.
