The NHL Network is back with another list.
This time, the NHL Network weighed in on the best wingers in the league and Alex Ovechkin is not first.
My friends, I am a little skeptical.
Friday, I was asked to join the NHL Network for a live TV interview. Jackie Redmond, who is very good at her job, asked me some very good questions and, other than me hating my face and the fact that I accidentally cut off part of the RMNB sign in the background, I think it went well.
So yeah, watch it for yourself and please be kind. I’m fragile.
Wednesday afternoon, I was a guest on NHL Network’s NHL Now and spoke to Jackie Redmond about the latest happenings with the Washington Capitals.
The fun part was Jackie did not give me lame, narrative-driven questions. I got awesome, open-ended questions and I think I did ok?
I dunno. You tell me.
Three-time Olympian, Monique Lamoureux-Morando, won her first Olympic gold with Team USA at Pyeongchang in February 2018. Monique scored the game-tying goal in the final and her twin sister, Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson, tallied the game-winning shootout goal.
The sisters later appeared on NHL Network’s NHL Now show to discuss their incredible experience at the Winter Olympics. On Wednesday, NHL Network announced that they were adding Monique Lamoureux-Morando as a permanent studio analyst.

Braden Holtby was one of the Capitals representatives on the NHL Media Tour yesterday. One of the Holtbeast’s stops was with the NHL Network to talk about the upcoming Capitals season.
Joining Jamison Coyle, E.J. Hradek, and Bill Lindsay on NHL Tonight, Holtby spoke about the Capitals’ continued struggles in the playoffs.
“Right now it’s just building out game, building the way we can feel comfortable in the uncomfortable situations. Really focus on that throughout the year,” Holtby said. “To make sure that when it comes down to it, we aren’t having a game like we did in Game Seven of last year against the Penguins.”
Holtby also preached that the team needs to be focused when they first play the Vegas Golden Knights on December 23.
“I think the biggest thing leading up to that is not taking them as an expansion team because they have some serious players and they are going to be a hard team to play against,” Holtby mentioned, likely referencing former teammate Nate Schmidt. “I think the building is going to have a lot of energy, especially in the first year, so it will be fun, it will be a fun challenge. I think we are all excited to play there for the first game.”
