Matt and Ty are back with a whole new podcast, rebranded as the Sports Hub Underground. The guys explain the meaning behind the change, before launching into a season preview for the 2021-22 Boston Bruins. Among the topics...
-- The Bruins may have their best forward depth in years with additions like Erik Haula, Nick Foligno, and Tomas Nosek. And how will the second line look now with Charlie Coyle at center and Taylor Hall driving the action? Most importantly, is it enough depth around them to legitimately contend for the Stanley Cup? (4:11)
-- Charlie McAvoy is about to get paid big-time. Is this also the year he takes a big jump with his offensive numbers? The guys also take a closer look at how newcomer Derek Forbort will fit into the lineup, and why Brandon Carlo and Mike Reilly will likely stick together all season. (24:13)
-- In goal, the Bruins aren't paying as high a price as people believe, compared to the rest of the league. Ty explains why he thinks Tuukka Rask will re-sign, and the guys go over the possible scenarios for when he returns. (37:20)
-- Finally, Matt & Ty get into some big-picture NHL topics. They have some thoughts on the new national broadcasts on ESPN and TNT, and their picks to win the Stanley Cup in 2022. Hint: They both picked the same team, and it's not the Bruins. (46:33)
