Liam McHugh and Eddie Olczyk are joined by Joel Quenneville, head coach of the Florida Panthers. Quenneville gives his take on this year’s team, where they stand at the pause, and his vision for expanding the playoff field.
He also reminisces about his time in Chicago, what it was like to coach Dustin Byfuglien, and his experience tailgating at Soldier Field after he was let go by the Hawks. Plus, he and Olczyk tell stories about their shared off-ice passion: horse racing.
