Since everyone on the panel owns at least one current-generation console there should be a lot of unique lists for sure.

Then we do Red Light, Yellow Light, Green Light on MLS coming back after the international break. The duo finish out with MLS and USWNT Weekend Pick 'Ems. 

In this episode of the Necessary Roughness Podcast, host Nikolas Donadic touches on the NFL’s news and notes from the month of June. He also (finally) debuts his oft-mentioned ranking of the NFL’s QBs, handicaps the Titans title chances after the Julio Jones deal, and dives back into the never-ending Aaron Rodgers debacle in Green Bay. Enjoy the show and join us on July 24th for the following episode!

The Last Word on Habs Pod is brought to you by the Last Word on Sports Network. Co-hosted by the LWOH Montreal Canadiens team manager Connor Lapalme and Johannes Wheeldon, it is a weekly look at the Habs and features guests from the Last Word on Sports community and others. Join us for smart takes, controversial opinions, and news you can use about the Montreal Canadiens.

The Habs and Vegas Golen Knights are tied in their Stanley Cup Semifinal series at 2-2. If anything, the Habs have proved to the hockey world, they are full value for being in this position. The series has been fairly even, and a case could be made that the Habs have carried the play for the most part.

Our hosts break down the first four games and how well the Habs are playing on balance. Still, the series is tied and is now a best of three. The Habs need to keep playing the team game that has worked so well for them so far these playoffs.

Unfortunately, the big story coming out of this series right now is not so much about the hockey but the absolutely atrocious officiating. It's sad that this has to be discussed but it's the NHL's own fault.

All this and COVID issues, Jo's hockey exploits, Quebec holidays and much much more!

TUNE IN!

Sean Garmer and Marc Morrison return with a regular episode of Video Games 2 the MAX as the Xbox Extended Showcase and our favorite games from E3 2021 are the major topics, as there is major E3 2021 fallout syndrome happening this week.

Alex and Chace are back and they have lots to discuss this week. First, the NHL Awards are being announced. The finalists for each award had been announced over the past few weeks. Now, it is time to see who actually wins. Because of the short offseason this year there will be no NHL awards show. Instead, the guys decide to look at their winners now. Alex and Chace go through the big awards including the Hart, Vezina, Norris and more. Giving their finalists, who were in contention and their winner. Including why they feel the NHL got it right or wrong for who was actually nominated.

Finally, they take a look at the semi-finals for the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs. Breaking down both matchups and what to expect for each team. Including what needs to go right or wrong for everyone to move on. They also give their predictions on the series final score.

This week, the guys recap the Habs sweep of the Winnipeg Jets in the North Division Final. Both hosts agree that the Mark Scheifele incident sucked the life out of the Jets. There was no real pushback from the Jets after game one. The guys then have some words about Sheifele's lack of accountability and remorse for his hit.

With the Jets in the rearview, the guys turn their attention to the Vegas Golden Knights. The Stanley Cup Semi-Final (we think that's what it's called) begins Monday at 9 PM in Vegas. The Habs are (again) in though, but there seems to be something about this Habs team that has the guys believing. Johannes and Connor break down how the teams match up to see which team has the advantage. After breaking it down, the guys give their predictions for the series (spoilers, they both have the Habs).

All this and revenge factors, Jeff Petry's health, special teams, the temptations of Las Vegas, and much much more!
