Dan Le Batard 0:00
The NHL has returned and it's time to get back to work. This is the Hockey Show.
Roy Bellamy 0:04
That is not the intro. I was not expecting that. That's great. Welcome to the Hockey Show.
Dan Le Batard 0:15
Hello.
Roy Bellamy 0:16
Hi, Roy.
Dan Le Batard 0:16
Hi, how you doing? David Dwork of the Hockey News. Rose is in the shipping container. Ethan is in the video room. My name is Roy Bellamy. You can check out the Hockey Show on YouTube at the Hockey Show DLS, on TikTok at the Hockey Show 7, and on X, Instagram, and threads at Hockey Show DLS. The big story this week is Sidney Crosby is going to miss a month. Minimum. Congratulations, Roy. I don't wish injury on anybody. This is massive for the Pittsburgh Penguins. He got checked by Radko Gudis against the Czechs during the quarters. It was during the quarters, correct? Yeah, because he missed the semifinal and he missed the last two games. Yeah, so it looked like a knee injury. It's a lower body is what the Penguins are saying.
Dan Le Batard 1:02
They have 25 games, 24 games left. No, 25 games left. And they ended up winning a game last night. And I should know because I had a bet on them to lose. And that really was disappointing. But the Penguins are... Did you not hit your 10-leg parlay? Hey, listen, you got to do something with these $1 bonus bets, all right? Yeah, that's true. But anyway. Turn your dollar into $1.50. Woo-hoo!

What happened with Team USA's men's hockey team after winning gold?

Dan Le Batard 1:25
All right, so for the next month, the Penguins are going to be without their captain. What are we doing here? What's going to happen here? Because they are holding on tight to second place in the division and to a wild card spot. Before last night, it was a point difference.
David Dwork 1:43
Still.
Dan Le Batard 1:43
Still a point difference. What's going to happen here?
David Dwork 1:46
What's going to happen? Pittsburgh's going to have to dig deep. They're going to have to rely on their new goaltending star, Spencer Skinner. Stuart Skinner. Spencer Skinner.
Ethan 1:54
Wow. Spencer.
David Dwork 1:56
$5. For some reason, I've been thinking about Spencer Knight all morning.
Dan Le Batard 1:59
You know why? Because last night during the Star-Spangled Banner, during the Maple Leafs-Panthers game, for the first time, there was no night said during the night portion of the Star-Spangled Banner.
David Dwork 2:12
We all just looked at each other like, did that really just not happen?
Dan Le Batard 2:15
I can't believe that happened. I can't believe that happened. But anyway, as you were saying.
David Dwork 2:19
No, I mean, obviously, Stewart Center has been lights out for the Penguins. They've got other players that have been playing well for them. Evgeny Malkin obviously having a solid year for the Pens. But it's tough, right? Because they've got 72 points. 71 points is Boston in the final wildcard spot. And then there's a lot of teams that are making a charge right now. Washington obviously trying to push up. Columbus and Buffalo could be playoff teams this year, Roy. What the hell is happening to the world right now? I know.
Ethan 2:44
I know. Now, the Pens are so lucky they're in the Metro division, guys. Like, they are just the luckiest team in the world that they're in the Metro. Because the Metro... If the Panthers were in the Metro, they would have... Like, they would be in the playoffs, basically, because of what's going on around there. The Pens are just... I don't know how they're going to survive without Crosby. Like, he's basically been lugging them into the playoff picture this year. But, no, that was very unfortunate. And I was very surprised... that the reception was so good for the Olympics even despite... Hold on. Let me rephrase that. What I'm meant to say is a lot of people during the Olympics were saying, oh my God, NHL players are never going to go back to the Olympics again because Sidney Crosby is hurt.
Ethan 3:30
But I don't think I've seen a lot of reaction like that since coming out of the NHL. I think this was a major success despite the fact that Sidney Crosby got injured.
Dan Le Batard 3:37
I really don't think the injury front in this situation was as bad as Four Nations last year.
David Dwork 3:42
No. Well...

Why are hockey reporters facing criticism?

David Dwork 3:44
comparable i guess because there are several guys that are a little banged up right now coming back from the olympics but uh you know kind of to ethan's point i don't think anybody cares like it was just so awesome the best on best these guys knew what they were getting themselves into uh so you know it it is what it is you you got to deal with it and i think that's better than not having it at all but just interestingly ethan as you talked about how pittsburgh is so grateful to be in the metro you know if they were in the pacific division they'd be in first place yep yep there was some conference outside of colorado was bad
