Being a Team Leader with Rick Bowness + Gary Lawless

Matt Marchese and Mike Futa begin The FAN Hockey Show going through a few texts from listeners discussing Evan Bouchard's performance affecting a future contract, the expectations of Team Canada with the rosters locked for the 4 Nations Face-Off, if Cale Makar can become the next highest paid defensemen, and if there's a market for Claude Giroux at the trade deadline. Later, former NHL Head Coach Rick Bowness (16:30) joins the podcast to talk about the best players he's coached, which players had the best leadership, the value of having a good relationship with your leadership group, and the transition from assistant coach to head coach. Finally, Gary Lawless (49:09), the Vegas Golden Knights Insider, joins Matt and Mike to discuss Alex Pietrangelo, Shea Theodore and Adin Hill making the 4 Nations Team Canada roster.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliate.
