Ian and Sean kick off the show discussing the surprising news of Martin St. Louis becoming the interim coach of the Canadiens, following Dominique Ducharme's firing on Wednesday. After less than a year as head coach for Ducharme, it leads to a discussion on if other coaches have been fired so quickly after a Cup run. Which would be a more controversial hire, St. Louis...or Patrick Roy? Also, Ian gets an interesting Twitter follower as they record a show.
Then, just as the guys were just starting to come around on Brad Marchand being likeable...Tuesday happens and he gets a six-game suspension for going at Tristan Jarry. Also, in more Bruins news, as goalie Tuukka Rask announces his retirement, is he the greatest netminder in Boston's history? Then, as Sidney Crosby is on the verge of hitting 500 career goals, what are some his most memorable ones? And if Ovechkin breaks Gretzky's goal scoring record, would you ever have Crosby's career, or Ovechkin's?
To wrap up, the guys answer a couple of mailbag questions, and in "This Week in Hockey History", Daryl Sittler notches ten points in a game, and the NHL's expansion from six teams to 12.
