45 years ago, a group of college kids pulled off the greatest upset in sports history, upending the powerhouse Soviet Union before taking out Finland for Olympic gold in Lake Placid. The backbone of the USA defense was Bowling Green stalwart Ken Morrow.

In the discussion with Neil and Vic, Morrow talks about the Olympic experience, head coach Herb Brooks and the quick transition to the NHL where even greater success was to come.

No team in the NHL has captured more hearts this season than the Columbus Blue Jackets. The team has rallied around tragedy and are right in the mix for an Eastern Conference wild card berth. Team president and general manager Don Waddell joins Neil and Vic to talk about his team and the upcoming Stadium Series game with Detroit.

When Mikko Rantanen was acquired by the Carolina Hurricanes in late January, it was believe the 'Canes had finally secured the blue chip goal scorer their team had been missing. Now, after needing more time to think about a contract extension, is Rantanen about to be flipped again before the trade deadline?

The Four Nations Faceoff delivered a stirring conclusion with Canada prevailing over the United States in overtime in the championship game with the game's top playoff player delivering the heroics.

With the margin between the nations so small, debate will continue as to who the premiere hockey nation is. Where there is no argument is that hockey itself was the biggest winner.

With the tournament now behind us, Vic and Neil look at the some of the residual effects starting with injuries and delving into the sharpness of the rest of the league coming off an extended break in play. They'll also do a deep dive into the bubble teams in the respective conferences, looking at the remaining schedules of those aiming to secure a spot in the playoffs.

The show concludes honoring the career of legendary Penguins play-by-play man, Mike Lange, who passed away Wednesday.

The Four Nations Faceoff has brought forth a heightened level of intensity and pace spurring a move for more frequent best-on-best international competitions.

The present-day hockey we enjoy and will continue to embrace in the future has deep roots, some complex and some quite modest.

The recent passing of longtime Maple Leafs PA announcer Paul Morris is a reminder that some of the most basic aspects of life and the game itself can generate memories which resonate to this day.

Just another game or is world hockey supremacy on the line as the United States and Canada square off in the Four Nations Faceoff Championship game? Greg Wyshynski from ESPN helps break down the significance but also delves into the "secret sauce" the NHL may have come upon with this upgrade of a mid-season event.

Once the tournament completes and the regular season ramps back up over the weekend, the importance of goals becomes heightened with March approaching. Matthew Blittner, co-author of "Game Winners: The Greatest Game-Winning Goals in Hockey History" joins us to discuss the recently-released book.

With so much focus on the present and future of international hockey, The Human Side of the Story takes a nostalgic look back at a much simpler time - where the unassuming voice of a PA announcer brought back rich memories for both Neil and Vic in their respective youths.

IN THIS EPISODE:

[01:02] - The Four Nations Faceoff dominates "Three Things You to Pay Attention To" from Canada securing their date with the USA to injuries creeping their way into the Americans lineup to encouraging TV ratings.

[06:00] - Greg Wyshynski from ESPN joins Neil and Vic and discusses the success the Four Nations Faceoff is enjoying in place of an All-Star event and what it may mean for best-on-best play going forward.

[12:30] - With the NHL having found a compelling mid-season event, the NBA is being looked out to see how they might enhance their mid-season showcase event.

[15:44] - The significance of this game for both Canada and the United States. With a USA win, will the torch have been passed after a period of time going back to the 19th century?

[22:19] - With injuries becoming a story with Team USA heading into the Final, the effect on NHL teams now becomes a reality for general managers.

[27:40] - Matt Blittner, Co-Author of "Game Winners: The Greatest Game-Winning Goals in Hockey History" joins the show. In collaboration with Russ Cohen, Matt discusses the concept of the book, criteria used to determine what made the cut and how the final rankings came to be.

[35:39] - Some healthy debate on goals noted in the book...and those that aren't.

[44:56] - Vic and Neil exchange views on how they feel about the Four Nations Faceoff now that the round-robin games have been completed.

[50:12] - The Human Side of the Story takes a warm look back to yesteryear following the passing of long time Maple Leafs public address announcer Paul Morris

Team USA's prime time win over Canada Saturday has secured the first spot in the Final at the Four Nations Faceoff while the Canadians are now in survival mode as they prepare for Monday's round-robin finale against Finland.

Meanwhile, once again, the Swedes are disappointing on the international stage.

The first two games are in the books in the Four Nations Faceoff with Sidney Crosby adding to his own international legacy while Team USA routs Finland. Conversely, one player has already been knocked out the tournament but that won't derail the NHL from having more in-season best-on-best hockey in 2028.

A few notes in an otherwise quiet news week and our all-Valentine team wraps up the show - though Ben Lovejoy did not make this year's cut.

Since the early 1960's, the Albert name has been synonymous with play-by-play. From Marv to his brothers Steve and Al to son Kenny, NHL, NBA, NFL and MLB games have been called by one of these four over the past seven decades.

Their impact on the sportscasting industry has been enormous. However, even with the biggest platforms to call games, there's a humility and genuineness that's carried on through all these years.

IN THIS EPISODE:

The 50th anniversary season for the Washington Capitals has been nothing short of remarkable as their stellar record has been further highlighted by Alex Ovechkin's pursuit of setting the goal-scoring record this season.

In this show, Vic and Neil note newcomers making impacts, goaltenders starting the offense and Connor Bedard's performance in his young career not living up to the "Generation Player" billing he's received.
