Morning Cuppa Hockey dives into a powerhouse episode as Jonny Lazarus and Colby Cohen welcome two-time Stanley Cup finalist and Team Canada assistant coach Pete DeBoer for a wide-ranging conversation on coaching at the highest level. DeBoer breaks down what life looks like away from the NHL bench, how he structures game days and off days, and the adjustments that come with helping build Team Canada. He details how elite players buy into secondary roles, what young stars like Connor Bedard and Macklin Celebrini need to show to crack a veteran lineup, and how he manages coach–goalie dynamics, including his decision to pull Jake Oettinger in the 2025 Western Conference Finals. DeBoer also explains the challenge of taking over a team midseason, why his groups often take a leap in Year 1, his remarkable Game 7 track record, and what he’s looking for in his next NHL opportunity.

We close with a full NHL recap touching on the New York Rangers, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, Florida Panthers, and Los Angeles Kings.
