On the Sheet: Andy Strickland on Blues’ Identity Crisis, Injuries & Western Pressures
21:18|Jeff Marek welcomes Andy Strickland to break down where exactly the St. Louis Blues go from here after a bruising week of injuries, schedule congestion, and a roster that hasn’t rediscovered the identity it flashed late last season. Strickland outlines how the condensed calendar has directly contributed to wear-and-tear absences — including the loss of key fourth-line tone-setters like Nathan Walker — and why St. Louis suddenly lacks the physical edge it once relied on. He also explains why the Blues’ situation feels closer to organizational shock than routine adversity, given they returned virtually the entire roster from the year they pushed Winnipeg to seven. With major clubs accelerating deadline timelines due to LTIR rules and the Olympic break pause, Strickland details where St. Louis fits in a Western arms race and why competitive restoration may require harder internal choices than expected.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/ca👍🏼Prime Video: https://primevideo-row.pxf.io/c/5560083/3303015/20020Reach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff
On the Sheet: Caleb Malhotra
13:16|Jeff Marek sits down with rising 2026 draft prospect Caleb Malhotra of the Brantford Bulldogs for a rare look into one of junior hockey’s most intriguing development stories. Malhotra explains how growing up with Manny Malhotra as his father shaped his habits, discipline, and understanding of the pro ecosystem, from locker-room exposure in Vancouver to video sessions and daily structure. He details the mental grind of last season’s injuries, watching peers jump to the CHL while he stayed committed, and why blocking out rankings noise is now part of his process. Caleb also reflects on sharing a room with future NHLers, learning under coach Jay McKee — a former NHL warrior with a path back to the big leagues — and how Brantford’s “all-in” roster construction fuels Memorial Cup expectations. For a player widely considered a top-five riser in the 2026 class, Malhotra’s maturity and readiness echo exactly what second-generation pedigree looks like when the fundamentals are taught, not forced.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/ca👍🏼Prime Video: https://primevideo-row.pxf.io/c/5560083/3303015/20020Reach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff
On the Sheet: David Pagnotta on Dallas’ LTIR Window, Seguin Fallout & Trade Targets
27:26|Jeff Marek and David Pagnotta dive into the immediate fallout of the Tyler Seguin injury and how it reshapes the Dallas Stars’ entire roster and trade calendar. With Seguin’s LTIR flexibility opening meaningful cap space, Pagnotta outlines why Dallas is now positioned to aggressively pursue names like Rasmus Andersson, Blake Coleman, and potentially Nazem Kadri in a multi-piece Calgary framework. They also dissect how Jim Nill views adding playoff-grade edge, why the Stars covet Cup-tested forwards with bite, and how Jake Oettinger and Jason Robertson fit into Dallas’ long-range spending structure. Plus, why Colorado vs. Dallas could be this spring’s defining arms race, and what happens if Robertson’s contract pushes past the club’s internal salary ceiling.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/ca👍🏼Prime Video: https://primevideo-row.pxf.io/c/5560083/3303015/20020Reach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff

On the Sheet: Tyler Yaremchuk on What's Next for the Oilers
22:41|Tyler Yaremchuk joins Jeff Marek for a deep dive into the Edmonton Oilers’ latest chapter, breaking down their 1–0 loss to the Minnesota Wild and the surge of Jesper Wallstedt, who continues to dominate with elite numbers in goal. Tyler explains why Wallstedt has become a lightning rod in Edmonton, how fan frustration ties back to the Oilers passing on him in the draft, and why development—not just scouting—defines whether picks work out. They explore whether this season should be treated as a “refresh” instead of an all-in push, how Connor McDavid’s willingness to “do anything to win” impacts roster decisions, and what Stan Bowman’s smartest timeline might be for making moves. Plus, Tyler revisits the Oilers’ biggest redo-worthy transactions, evaluates Stuart Skinner’s play, and outlines why Edmonton might be better positioned for major upgrades this summer rather than chasing short-term fixes right now.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/ca👍🏼Prime Video: https://primevideo-row.pxf.io/c/5560083/3303015/20020Reach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff

They explore what Connor McDavid’s “I’ll do anything to win” comments really mean, how the Oilers should approach their season under Stan Bowman, and whether this is a true reset year or a runway to something bigger. Jason Robertson’s Olympic push takes center stage as the crew discusses his goal-scoring heater and why Team USA’s Mike Sullivan will have a hard time leaving him off the roster. Plus, Jonny Lazarus joins live from the Prudential Center — in full gear — to talk Devils alumni skates, the Dallas Stars’ outlook after Tyler Seguin’s ACL injury, and why players still obsess over development and draft-day hindsight.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Fan Duel: https://www.fanduel.com/👍🏼Bauer: https://www.bauer.com/👍🏼Uber Eats: https://www.ubereats.com/ca👍🏼Prime Video: https://primevideo-row.pxf.io/c/5560083/3303015/20020Reach out to sales@thenationnetwork.com to connect with our Sales Team and discuss opportunities to partner with us!If you liked this, check out:🚨 OTT - Coming in Hot Sens | https://www.youtube.com/c/thewallyandmethotshow🚨 TOR - LeafsNation | https://www.youtube.com/@theleafsnation401🚨 EDM - OilersNation | https://www.youtube.com/@Oilersnationdotcom🚨 VAN - CanucksArmy | https://www.youtube.com/@Canucks_Army🚨 CGY - FlamesNation | https://www.youtube.com/@FNBarnBurner🚨 Daily Faceoff Fantasy & Betting | www.youtube.com/@DFOFantasyandBetting____________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with us on ⬇️Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/daily_faceoff💻 Website: https://www.dailyfaceoff.com🐦 Follow on twitter: https://x.com/DailyFaceoff💻 Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dailyfaceoffDaily Faceoff Merch:https://nationgear.ca/collections/daily-faceoff#TheSheet #NHL #Hockey #JeffMarek #TylerYaremchuk #ConnorBedard #ColoradoAvalanche #VancouverCanucks #EdmontonOilers #MinnesotaWild
