Olympic Roster Philosophy + the Beginning of the Oilers’ Bounce-Back?

Matt Marchese and Gord Stellick take a look at the standings, with the Tampa Bay Lightning surging to the top of the Atlantic after starting the season last in the division, and the Ottawa Senators in good position as Brady Tkachuk gets set to make his return to the lineup. Former NHLer and NHL Network's Jason Demers joins the show (18:32) to discuss how teams can rally around stars dropping the gloves, his experience at the 2022 Olympics, what Team Canada and Team USA should prioritise in their roster construction, and whether missing the playoffs can be a blessing in disguise for the Maple Leafs. Later, Hockey Night in Canada's Louie DeBrusk (44:21) weighs in on how the Edmonton Oilers' Cup rematch win can bring out their competitive edge.
