Former Maple Leaf and current Detroit Red Wing James van Riemsdyk joins Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill for a wide-ranging conversation. JVR breaks down his patented between-the-legs goal against James Reimer, his strong season in Detroit, and what’s clicked for the Red Wings as they sit second in the Atlantic Division. He also dives into the tight Eastern Conference playoff race, the Toronto spotlight and how it helped shape him as a player, Auston Matthews’ dominance, William Nylander’s swagger — including his recent Batman game-day outfit — and Scott Laughton’s importance in a locker room, reflecting on their time together in Philadelphia.
