MvsW: No Lead Is Safe!

The Jeff Marek Show - A podcast by Sportsnet

Jeff and Greg start off with their thoughts on the World Cup and discuss the long-time belief that soccer would pass hockey in popularity in the United States. Next, the guys react to the breaking news of Kris Letang suffering a stroke that will keep him sidelined indefinitely (06:13). Moving on, they discuss the high-scoring game between the Seattle Kraken and L.A. Kings, Jaden Schwartz’s baffling stat line, and why it’s harder to defend in today’s game (10:39). Jeff then offers up a theory on why the Selke Trophy is a bizarre award for a league that wants an increase in offence (17:25). To finish up, the guys chat about no leads being safe in today’s game, if there needs to be more former goaltenders monitoring the current crop of netminders, and more (25:06)!
