Predicting the series 1183188 Simulating the 2020 NHL playoffs: Penguins vs. Flyers 1183164 Arizona Coyotes Coyotes hold meetings with players reviewing season, looking ahead BY MATT LAYMAN APRIL 18, 2020 AT 5:26 PM It’s typical for NHL teams to hold exit meetings with players at the conclusion of the season. Right now, though, teams can’t say for sure whether their season will continue or if it’s over. “Myself and our GM John Chayka, we had player calls,” head coach Rick Tocchet said in a video call with reporters last Friday. “We had 15, 20 minutes per guy, talking. It’s not exit meetings because I still believe that we’re going to play in the next couple months, I’m trying to be optimistic. But I think it’s important that you stay connected with the team. I know it’s a little harder to do that. “So we had basically somewhat recap of the first 70, what’s expected and then also the future. So we did that the last couple of days. I’ve had a couple of zoom meetings with our coaches the last week.” While it’s not known how the 2019-20 NHL season proceeds from here, the games that have already been played are set in stone. The Coyotes arrived at the coronavirus-caused halt at 33-29-8, in fifth place in the Western Conference Wild Card standings with 74 points. Arizona once held first place in the Pacific Division but fell out with a 3-8- 4 stretch from January to February. “We just kind of talked,” defenseman Jakob Chychrun said Thursday of the meetings. “The first bit was about your season individually. Then kind of talked about the future and what they expect from you and where they think you can improve. It was good. They were good phone calls, good conversations. “It’s always nice to speak with them and just kind of give ideas and receive information on how they feel and vice versa. So it was a good talk.” Chychrun’s season was unique. Battling injuries in previous years, he got in 63 games in 2019-20 — the most since his rookie season three years prior. He and Alex Goligoski emerged early in the season as a strong defensive pairing. “My year personally I think it went pretty well,” he said. “I think there’s a little more opportunity there with a few injuries and I think was able to take advantage of it and play some bigger minutes, which was very nice. I definitely enjoyed that. “I think as a team, too, we started really good. I think we started how we expected to and kind of started to fall off a little bit. Obviously we lost control of first in our division there and we started to kind of find it again. I think for us as a group, it’s just that consistency and buying in like Toc always says to our system and the way we have to play every single night.” Forward Clayton Keller, meanwhile, had similar remarks on Tuesday about the individual meetings. He said he was asked what he was up to during the down time and that they talked about the past and future. He also happens in the middle of a move. “I’m moving out of my place now and going to my parents’ house where I have a nice shooting area there, which I think some of you guys saw from last summer,” he said. “So it will be good to go in there and keep shooting, stick-handling and keeping everything intact, I guess.” Arizona Sports LOADED: 04.20.2020 1183165 Arizona Coyotes puck in the corner, he pushed it up the boards, right to a trailing Boedker. Shooting from an impossible angle on the goal line, Boedker beat goalie Corey Crawford for a 3-2 win at 13:15 of the first overtime. Mikkel Boedker’s Chicago story: Playoffs, pingpong, OT heroics “I was just trying to throw it at the net and it took a weird bounce and went in,” Boedker said. “The whole bench skated out and I didn’t really know what to do when I saw everyone coming at me. It was just pure excitement; pure joy. You’re in such a quiet building after four periods of By Craig Morgan Apr 19, 2020 it being so loud with the crowd screaming.” It got even quieter when Boedker scored at 2:15 of the first OT in Game Every Monday and Thursday through the end of May, The Athletic 4, but this goal required a lot more skill than a first glance suggested. Arizona is reliving the Coyotes’ 2012 playoff run to the Western “It was a breakaway so he created the opportunity,” coach Dave Tippett Conference final. You can also watch the games on Fox Sports Arizona said. during their “Classic Coyotes Night” programming series that debuts April 20. More information available here. After Boyd Gordon chipped a loose puck out of the Coyotes’ zone, Boedker arrived at the loose puck in the neutral zone at the same time as Todd Walsh had just arrived at the Ritz-Carlton Chicago after a long night Chicago defenseman Nick Leddy, but Leddy took a bad angle to the covering Game 4 of the Coyotes’ Western Conference quarterfinal series puck, allowing Boedker to chip it past him and get a step on him. By the against the Blackhawks. The final media bus that normally takes time Boedker got to top of the circles in the Chicago zone, Leddy was at reporters and broadcasters back to their hotels during the playoffs had his left flank, but Boedker fended him off with his body until he got to the already left United Center, leaving a substantial group of reporters stuck crease.

  • Versatile Fox Sports Broadcaster Kenny Albert Continues to Pair with Biggest Names in Sports
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Erik Arneson, FOX Sports Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2016 [email protected] VERSATILE FOX SPORTS BROADCASTER KENNY ALBERT CONTINUES TO PAIR WITH BIGGEST NAMES IN SPORTS Boothmates like Namath, Ewing, Palmer, Leonard ‘Enhance Broadcasts … Make My Job a Lot More Fun’ Teams with Former Cowboy and Longtime Broadcast Partner Daryl ‘Moose’ Johnston and Sideline Reporter Laura Okmin for FOX NFL in 2016 With an ever-growing roster of nearly 250 teammates (complete list below) that includes iconic names like Joe Namath, Patrick Ewing, Jim Palmer, Jeremy Roenick and “Sugar Ray” Leonard, versatile FOX Sports play-by-play announcer Kenny Albert -- the only announcer currently doing play-by-play for all four major U.S. sports (NFL, MLB, NBA and NHL) -- certainly knows the importance of preparation and chemistry. “The most important aspects of my job are definitely research and preparation,” said Albert, a second-generation broadcaster whose long-running career behind the sports microphone started in high school, and as an undergraduate at New York University in the late 1980s, he called NYU basketball games. “When the NFL season begins, it's similar to what coaches go through. If I'm not sleeping, eating or spending time with my family, I'm preparing for that Sunday's game. “And when I first work with a particular analyst, researching their career is definitely a big part of it,” Albert added. “With (Daryl Johnston) ‘Moose,’ for example, there are various anecdotes from his years with the Dallas Cowboys that pertain to our games. When I work local Knicks telecasts with Walt ‘Clyde’ Frazier on MSG, a percentage of our viewers were avid fans of Clyde during the Knicks’ championship runs in 1970 and 1973, so we weave some of those stories into the broadcasts.” As the 2016 NFL season gets underway, Albert once again teams with longtime broadcast partner Johnston, with whom he has paired for 10 seasons, sideline reporter Laura Okmin and producer Barry Landis.
