Liam Kilfoil and Eddy Doyle Join the Pod | Big Wins on the Road | New Coach, No Problem

Author: Halifax Mooseheads | BNV Media November 5, 2025 Duration: 1:00:53

On today's episode of This is Moose Country, Scott and Brad break down a massive Quebec road swing – wins over Moncton and Blainville, an OT point in Rouyn-Noranda, and a tough one in Val-d'Or – including a wild 7–5 win where the special teams finally caught fire, and third-overall pick Malik L'Italien had a breakout night.

They also chat about the upcoming games in November as well as the heartbreak felt across Canada with the Blue Jays going down in game 7 of the World Series.

Then they're  joined by two of the guys leading the charge this season: Forward Liam Kilfoil and defenceman Eddy Doyle.

They dive into:

  • What that road trip felt like from inside the room and why the Blainville win was a "we're legit" moment

  • The transition to Brad MacKenzie as head coach and how the staff keeps the group loose but dialed in

  • Liam's wild broken-nose story

  • Eddy's draft year: prospects game, scout meetings, and balancing NHL and NCAA interest

  • Liam's invite to Detroit Red Wings development camp — lining up against Larkin, Raymond and Kane, and a sit-down with Steve Yzerman

  • The reality of chasing the dream: NCAA commitments, CHL/NCAA rule changes, and different paths to pro hockey

  • Eddy's summer grind in Tignish
