On-Ice Distractions

Author: The Nation Network November 3, 2025 Duration: 1:06:51

Season 3 rolls on, and it’s another jam-packed morning across the hockey world! 🏒 Jonny Lazarus and Colby Cohen kick things off with a crossover moment between sports — the World Series Game 7 broadcasted on the jumbotron during the Oilers game. Connor McDavid admitted he found himself distracted by the Jays’ heartbreaking loss, even while on the bench. The guys break down his comments and how the atmosphere in Edmonton turned into an unforgettable sports mashup.


From there, attention shifts to the ice. The Tampa Bay Lightning have suddenly ripped off five straight wins after a slow start, reminding everyone they’re still a powerhouse in the East. Meanwhile, rookie sensation Matthew Schaefer scored twice and now sits atop the defensemen scoring leaderboard, giving Dallas a glimpse of what could be their next franchise blueliner.


Elsewhere, Chris Tanev left Saturday’s game following a strange collision with Matvei Michkov, Evgeni Malkin was fined for slashing, and the New Jersey Devils locked in Jacob Markström on a two-year deal to stabilize their crease. Colorado also made headlines, signing Martin Nečas to an eight-year contract that cements him as part of the Avs’ long-term core.


And yes, Kiefer Sherwood continues to shock the league — sitting near the top in both goals and hits, embodying the “hard-nosed scoring forward” every contender dreams of.


Finally, it’s Cuppa College Week 2, as the guys welcome Michigan State head coach Adam Nightingale to discuss his program’s rise, the next wave of college stars, and what makes Spartan hockey culture so special.

There’s a particular kind of hockey talk that only comes from having lived it, and that’s exactly what you’ll find on Morning Cuppa Hockey. Hosts Jonny Lazarus and Colby Cohen bring their own distinct perspectives-forged from playing at multiple levels, including a Stanley Cup win-to the day’s biggest stories. Their conversations are less about delivering unanimous takes and more about digging into the nuances behind the headlines, the trends shaping the league, and those controversial plays that everyone is arguing about. This podcast thrives on that genuine back-and-forth; they know the game deeply, but they don’t always see it the same way. Alongside breaking down the news, they regularly pull back the curtain to introduce fascinating figures from around the hockey world, offering listeners a richer understanding of the sport’s characters and culture. It’s the kind of daily analysis that feels like a conversation with well-informed friends, perfect for starting your day. You can catch new episodes live Monday through Thursday, but the recorded podcast is always there for your morning routine, whenever you need that fix of authentic, experienced hockey insight.
