Let's Get Pucked Up

Stephane Poitras and Devan Grainger join as guests to discuss some predictions for the upcoming 2021 NHL season, including a deep dive into the all-Canadian North Division. They then continue on to make predictions regarding the top 4 for each of the other divisions, as well as their picks for who might surprise this season. Other topics include: Evander Kane bankruptcy, will the season even get finished?

Spencer Phillips and Devan Grainger join as guests to dish on who their winners and losers are from the recent free agency period in the NHL, and to settle the fiery debate that came out of nowhere: did the Montreal Canadiens have a good off-season, and, if not, was it worse than that of the Vancouver Canucks?

Wyatt Danowski, Devan Grainger, and, on rare occasion Scott Dowler from a distance, join host, Robin Kooymans, on a live draft episode of Let's Get Pucked Up. We discuss the draft picks as they come in hot and fresh up until the Habs at #16 (this doesn't need to be a four hour episode), as well as our desires for our teams at their draft positions, and the perplexing Max Domi trade from earlier in the day.

R-Money and Graingles talk Lightning cup win, Pietrangelo, NHL Draft, Jim Rutherford carving up the Penguins, Lundqvist buyout, trade rumours, and much much more on another exhilarating episode of Two Leafs Fans, No Cup.

Devan Grainger joins again from North Bay, Ontario as a guest to discuss our general apathy toward the playoffs at this point, the unique circumstances that are leading up to what is sure to be a crazy offseason for goalies switching teams, and a quick and hard segment on Leafs stuff, including the Kapanen trade and which right-handed D they should target.

A trio of Saskatonians (Simon Fanner, Erin Hopkins, Engineer Miles) join the podcast to discuss the plight of Simon's team (Habs), their favourite moments of the NHL's Return to Play so far, their predictions for conference finals, finals, and Stanley Cup champion, and to try to figure out a way to talk about Erin's team (Red Wings), in a positive light moving forward.

Devan Grainger and Spencer Phillips come on the pod again to join host, Robin Kooymans, in an attempted therapeutic episode for themselves as they grieve the end of another disappointing Leafs' season. They go through the five stages of grief (Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depresssion, Acceptance), spending the bulk of time in the Anger and Bargaining categories, and try to decide how to move forward as Leafs fans while still retaining a shred of dignity.

Wyatt Danowski guests again to co-mourn with host, Robin Kooymans, over the play-in round demises and lack of an Alexis Lafreniere for both the Leafs and Jets. They also make fun of the NHL's presentation of Round Two of the Draft Lottery, talk about general play-in round impressions, and give their predictions for what shall heretofore be canonically referred to as round one of the playoffs despite the fact that the play-in round was obviously playoffs. Drink the pain away.

Day 4 of the play-in has arrived and players are dropping like flies. Wyatt Danowski and Devan Grainger join as guests to discuss the plights of the Jets and Leafs in each of their play-in series, and briefly touch on their shock at the poor performance of the Florida Panthers.

Devan Grainger and Stephen Smart join the podcast to talk their initial thoughts after a disappointing Leafs loss in Game 1 of their play-in series vs. Columbus. We cover topics including how the Leafs can beat a team with as good of a defensive structure as the Blue Jackets, what a loss in the play-in series means for job security for the people in charge for the Leafs, and then give our picks for Best Player, Worst Player, Most Pleasant Surprise, and Biggest Disappointment. We also delve into talking a bit about a few other series that have caught our attention during the NHL's Return to Play, whether it be due to wild upsets or juicy storylines. Good to have hockey back!
