Last Word on Sports is proud to present their hockey podcast, On the Powerplay with Ben and Dave. Join Ben Kerr and Dave Gove each week as they take a look around the Hockey World focusing on the big issues of the NHL and elsewhere.
We are just a week away from the end of the NHL regular season and the start of the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The boys are lucky enough to be joined by NHL Legend Bernie Nicholls to talk about the end of the season. Nicholls gives his thoughts on who will take the final playoff spots, as well as looking at the potential first round matchups and which are the most intriguing. He also gives his thoughts on who will be the next Stanley Cup Champion.
Nicholls also discusses his participation in Wayne Gretzky’s fantasy camp in Las Vegas. We’ve all seen the photos, but how exactly did George Parros lose his teeth at a fantasy camp. Nicholls gives us the inside scoop.
He also discusses his brand new project, AllSportsMarket.com, where you can invest in your favorite sports team; and make real money based on their wins and losses.
Later Dave and Ben discuss the slash by Duncan Keith on Charlie Coyle and how he should be punished by the NHL. Keith is now a repeat offender. Is he a dirty player, or just someone who has crossed the line a few times?
The boys also delve into the recently released NHL Concussion lawsuit emails. They discuss Bob McKenzie, Brendan Shanahan, Gary Bettman, Colin Campbell, Marc Napier and others. How do these emails reflect on the league?
Lastly the boys discuss all seven Canadian NHL teams, and how they have missed the playoffs. They look at how these teams can make a change next year.
