We talk about some coaching changes, Quebec insanity, The Winter Classic (specifically 24/7 on HBO) and concussions. Then we turn our attention to the Sharks woes away from home, the amazing start to the homestand, dead ducks on the ice and looking forward to the Canucks games tonight as well as Monday.

Strap in because it's going to be a long ride today as we have a lot to talk about. We talk about realignment, coaching changes, concussions, and the Sharks recent highs and lows.

We talk about about the GM meetings and relate some of the more talked about aspects of those meetings to some recent events in the NHL. Then we talk about the Sharks homestand and look forward to the final game against Detroit and then the mini road trip that follows along with the games shortly following that.

We discuss some of the strange standings early in the season. As well as some of the players that are on inexplicable rolls. We then check in on those that have suspended since our last podcast. We finish off talking about the Sharks going 5-1 on their roadtrip as well as talking about a few individual players.

We talk about the Sharks woes through four games, but first laugh at the Blue Jackets, laud the Penguins and Flyers, talk about the strides the Capitols have made and touch on hockey in Winnipeg.

We talk about how the Wheel of Justice has been replaced with a smart, tempered system and what Brendan Shanahan is doing right when it comes to the suspensions being levied around the league. We laugh at Sean Avery being waived. We preview the Sharks going into Saturday's home/season opener against Phoenix. The surprise play of Tommy Wingels and Brad Winchester. And we guess who might get their jersey retired first in San Jose.

As the season approaches we flip up the format a little for this episode as we start chatting about the Sharks as the teams heads into their first pre-season game of the 2011/2012 season. Then we take a look around the rest of the NHL. We close by touching upon the tragedies that have happening in the hockey world since our last podcast.

Our first mid-offseason podcast. We discuss many of the big events so far this offseason. Then we turn our attention to the Sharks team for the upcoming season.

We talk about the Boston/Tampa Bay series so far and take a look back at the final 3 games of the Sharks/Red Wings series. Then we talk about the Sharks/Canucks series and the state of officiating in this year's postseason.

Recorded just prior to Game 5 of the Sharks/Detroit series we discuss the sweeps in the East, share our thoughts and predictions for the Canucks/Predators Series (prior to that Game 6) and break down the Sharks series through the first four games.
