The NHL is BACK — and apparently everyone could’ve used a few more days of training camp. With a shortened camp and reduced preseason, the rust was on full display as teams stumbled, scrambled and tried to find their early-season rhythm. This week, Phil & Ryan break down the new-look Leafs, Ryan’s already losing patience with the Habs after coming into the season with sky-high expectations, the Oilers still have some glaring issues to figure out, and somehow… things in Detroit just keep getting worse.
Overreactions after a handful of games? Maybe. But where’s the fun in waiting? It’s a brand-new NHL season, and there’s already plenty to talk about on this week’s Aiming Five-Hole Podcast!
