Episode 243 featuring Rod Brind'Amour

Riley Cote and Derek Settlemyre start the show reacting to the Philadelphia Flyers offer sheet to Leo Carlsson and Claude Giroux re-signing in Ottawa. Riles and Nasty are then joined by 2026 Stanley Cup winning head coach Rod The Bod Brind'Amour. Roddy talks to us about winning the Stanley Cup, celebrating the win, the culture in Carolina, and the relief of winning. We dive into Jordan Staal’s leadership and the Hurricanes goaltending tandem of Bussi and Andersen.

We then discuss going up against the Flyers in the playoffs, Porter Martone and Rick Tocchet, organizational patience, coaching philosophies, analytics, and what it's like coaching Shayne Gostisbehere, Sean Walker, and Nic Deslauriers. Jumping into his playing career, we touch on starting in St Louis, playing in Philadelphia, Philly fans, and watching Allen Iverson play basketball. We tap into the Stanley Cup parade, before wrapping up on coaching speeches and influence he's had from other coaches.
