The Suitcase and The Suitcase

  • Summary

  • No Scott Burnside on the show today, so Mike McKenna was joined by a fellow suitcase Derek Nesbitt.


    Nesbitt is the current captain of the Atlanta Gladiators in the ECHL and has played over 1000 games in the minor leagues. During his time in the minor leagues, he was coached by now Colorado Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar. Nesbitt told a couple of stories from his time spent with Bednar and also talked about his relationships with his players.


    Of course, earlier this week, the Bednar won the Stanley Cup with the Avalanche beating the Tampa Bay Lightning in game six. Mike and Derek dove into the series, discussing what the Avalanche did to help them win. In the days after the final game, Jon Cooper released the Lightning's injury report, and if you haven't seen it already, you will want to listen to what a few players were dealing with.


    Also, on the show, Mike and Derek discussed the Chicago Blackhawks' new head coach Luke Richardson along with the other new coaches around the NHL. That list includes John Tortorella, who is back in the NHL with the Philadelphia Flyers.


    You can hear all that and more on episode 41 of The Suitcase and The Scribe.
