This week on the debut episode of Buzzin' with Baker, Edmonton Stingers Head Coach and General Manager Jordan Baker takes stock of the season as the club reaches the one-third mark of its schedule. Sitting at 3-5 through eight games, Baker shares his assessment of the team's start, the progress he's seen since training camp and whether the current record truly reflects the group's performance and potential.

The conversation also examines a recent setback against the league-leading Scarborough Shooting Stars, with Baker discussing the lessons learned from facing one of the CEBL's top teams and the message he delivered to his players afterward. He also provides insight into one of the unique challenges of coaching in the CEBL: managing constant roster turnover. With Dain Dainja departing to pursue NBA opportunities and captain Nick Hornsby returning to the lineup, Baker explains how teams maintain continuity amid a revolving roster and why Hornsby's leadership remains so valuable to the organization.

Plus, Baker breaks down the balanced offensive approach that has become a hallmark of the Stingers, previews a rematch against Montreal at The Hive, and reveals what fans may not see behind the scenes that gives him confidence this team is capable of producing better results as the season moves forward.
