  • USA vs Germany Post-Game Show With Jonny Lazarus

    42:56|
    Team USA rolls past Germany 5–1 at the 2026 Milan Games to finish a perfect 3–0 in preliminary play — and it was a night headlined by a smiling Auston Matthews. Jonny Lazarus is joined by E.J. Hradek and Keith Cavanaugh to break down Matthews’ two-goal, three-point performance, Quinn Hughes’ brilliance from the blue line, and why Brady Tkachuk continues to set the emotional tone for this group. The guys dive into whether Team USA has truly found its best game yet, the lineup debate between Clayton Keller and Kyle Connor, the importance of role players like J.T. Miller and Vincent Trocheck on a 100% penalty kill, and why Sweden presents a much tougher quarterfinal test than the standings suggest. Plus, they debate USA’s MVP through three games and whether this team is on a collision course with Canada for gold.Presented by bet365 — whatever the moment, it’s never ordinary.Chapters00:00 Welcome + USA defeats Germany 5–1 01:13 Auston Matthews’ big night (2G, 1A) 03:44 Did USA truly “breeze” through group play? 05:09 Quarterfinal outlook + Sweden matchup 06:11 Quinn Hughes impact discussion 08:38 Has USA played its best yet? 10:10 Keller vs Connor lineup debate 12:13 Situational hockey + late-period breakdown 15:44 Tkachuk chirps + Draisaitl spotlight 17:54 Keith Cavanaugh joins 18:06 Should USA have experimented more? 21:24 Roster role players (Miller, Trocheck, PK) 23:18 Canada comparison — is USA cohesive enough? 26:54 Should Jack Hughes move up the lineup? 29:58 MVP through three games 34:05 Quarterfinal lineup decisions 41:13 Collision course with Canada? 43:24 Wrap-up + subscribeLike, comment, and subscribe for full postgame coverage throughout the Milan Games 🇺🇸🏒

    Team USA survives Denmark 6–3 at the 2026 Milan Games and moves to 2–0 in Group C — but it wasn’t as comfortable as the final score suggests.

  • USA vs Latvia Post Game ft. Jonny Lazarus

    41:58|
    Team USA is off and running at the 2026 Milan Games, taking down Latvia 5–1 in Game 1 — and Jonny Lazarus is joined by Colby Cohen, Tim Kalinowski LIVE from Italy (Snapback Sports), and Stefen Rosner to break it all down. The crew dives into the chaotic opening period (including two disallowed goals), whether the U.S. truly “set the tone” early, and why the pace driven by Charlie McAvoy and Quinn Hughes could be the difference in this tournament. They unpack Tage Thompson’s power-play finish, the all-lefty second unit look, forward ice-time distribution, and why rolling four lines might be a luxury most teams don’t have. Tim checks in from Milan with behind-the-scenes atmosphere, fan vibes, and an all-time story that turns into an unexpected interview with Matt Boldy’s dad, while Rosner weighs in on the Brock Nelson breakout game, why Auston Matthews still feels like he has another gear, and the looming goalie decision heading into a back-to-back weekend. Presented by bet365 — whatever the moment, it’s never ordinary. Chapters 00:00 Welcome + USA 5–1 opening win recap 04:45 Early tone, pace, and power play adjustments 12:50 Ice-time breakdown: forwards & defense18:40 LIVE from Milan – arena vibes & fan stories 26:40 Who stood out in person + small-ice impact 32:25 Brock Nelson spotlight + Matthews discussion 36:55 Goaltending decisions & what’s next (Denmark/Germany) 42:15 Wrap-up + subscribe for full Milan Games coverage Like, comment, and subscribe for full postgame coverage throughout the Milan Games
