How to Build Team Canada with Ken Holland & Mike Kelly
Matt Marchese and Mike Futa kick off The FAN Hockey Show with their roster picks for this year's 4 Nation Face-off tournament. Next, former NHL GM Ken Holland (14:42) joins the show to discuss how to assemble a Team Canada roster, his experiences managing Team Canada, the necessity of pairing with teammates on the same line, and whether a player's track record can be used to evaluate a player's recent performance. Later, Mike Kelly (41:41) of the NHL Network joins the guys to discuss who should be Team Canada's starting goaltender and why there is a lack of Canadian goalie development. They then focus on Connor Bedard's dry spell, wondering what's wrong and whether he'll be able to recover. Finally, the guys wrap up with Macklin Celebrini’s impressive start in the NHL.
