With the series out on Prime Video, Donnovan chats with NHL Chief Content Officer Steve Mayer (4:23) on why this was the right time for the league to venture into such a project, and also chats with showrunner Daniel Amigone (29:17) on the challenges of getting the best out of notoriously-reserved hockey athletes. Afterwards, Donnovan speaks with Charlie Lyons (53:07), former Colorado Avalanche owner, on the Prime Video documentary Saving Sakic. Plus, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman (1:07:50) stops by for his annual chat, as they get into a wide-ranging discussion including the Prime docuseries, NHL labour negotiations, what it means to be an insider, and his summer of calling Olympic rowing at Paris 2024.
