Former Flyers Defenseman Randy Jones Joined Us In Studio | Nasty Knuckles Episode 158

Riley and Derek start off the show by discussing the Eastern Conference playoffs starting with the New York and Carolina series (2:18) with the Hurricanes starting to come back and Evgeny Kuznetsov’s resurgence, while Rangers Vincent Trocheck and Alexis Lafrenière have stood out to Nasty. They move over to the Bruins/Panthers series (7:51) with all the drama surrounding Brad Marchand and Sam Bennett, and the inconsistent goalie interference. Shifting over to the West (17:19) they discuss Edmonton and Vancouver with Cal Pickard getting a chance and making the most of it for the Oilers, and JT Miller turning things around under Rick Tocchet. Rounding out the West we have (22:43) the Avalanche and Stars, Tyler Seguin changing his game over time, and Valeri Nichushkin’s recent suspension. The boys continue with our new betting segment (26:55) brought to you by bet365 by giving a couple of their bets for Thursday and Friday night's games. They finish off the show answering fan submitted questions (1:22:55).

He talks about being a hockey coach in his hometown and his coaching style (30:03), deciding to sign with the Flyers out of college (34:57), playing for the Philadelphia Phantoms and winning the 2005 Calder Cup (36:55), and different coaches he played for (47:44).

[@jeffradice9994]

Another good one boys!! Hey Nasty are you going to be at the Lemieux Complex for the tournament this weekend?? If so I would love to stop by and say hey. That's only a couple miles from where I live

[@davemarnell8871]

Balloons, lol. I went there a few times. Only open from 3-5 am and it was in the middle of the suburbs. Would never suspect a professional athlete was in there, lol.

[@stackaleak]

You mention nicknames like "Divy" but never say his actual name - would be more interesting for us to know who you're talking about.

[@NastyKnuckles]

Divy is Ben Eager mentioned at 40:02. Thank you for watching!!

[@stackaleak]

@@NastyKnuckles Ok. Thanks.

[@NastyKnuckles]

@@stackaleak of course! Appreciate you tuning in

[@stackaleak]

@@NastyKnuckles There were several other nicknames mentioned, who I don't know as well. I really didn't follow the phantoms back in the day.
