Saturday Dec 18, 2021
Welcome to Slap Shot Podcast! In episode 47, host Christopher Morais (@fuzzychris91) takes a look at the NHL, and what the players should be doing concerning going to the Olympics. Everyone would love to see them go, but is it in their best interest to go? Is it worth it?
We also take a moment to talk about the COVID-19 situation in the NHL, and what the league needs to do to get control of the situation. Is a league shutdown coming? Is that the best course of action?

Welcome to Slap Shot Podcast! In episode 46, host Christopher Morais (@fuzzychris91) a look at the Montreal Canadiens' recent changes to their management team.
Marc Bergevin gets fired, and Jeff Gorton comes in as VP of Hockey Operations. It's not his task to hire a new General Manager, who will speak French. Do you like this decision by owner Jeff Molson? Would you have done the same?
We also take a look at why expanding the medical team to help players off the ice is a great idea, and why that decision had to come now.

Slap Shot Podcast Episode 45: Hiring a French Speak Coach In Montreal
Saturday Nov 27, 2021
Saturday Nov 27, 2021
Welcome to Slap Shot Podcast! In episode 45, host Christopher Morais (@fuzzychris91) a look at the Montreal Canadiens' coach situation, and whether of not firing Dominic Ducharm is the best solution.
If the team were to replace him, do they absolutely have to replace him with a French-speaking coach? Is it time we move on from that and look for the best candidate available?
I also give my pick as to who I could see taking over if a change were to be made during the season.

Welcome to Slap Shot Podcast! In episode 44, host Christopher Morais (@fuzzychris91) takes a look at recent comments made by the premier of Quebec concerning French-speaking players in the NHL, specifically the Montreal Canadiens.
Why do the Canadiens have so few of them? What is the solution? Will a new committee really change anything?
I give my take on a few changes that would help increase registration at the minor league level, and some challenges that hockey in general might be facing over the next few years.
