Inside the Olympic Pressure Cooker

Description

Jim is back! He joins Cam just in time to dive into the real details surrounding the upcoming start of the Canadian men’s tournament in Milano-Cortina.

What does Jim think of the way the lines have come together? What challenges do Czechia and Switzerland present to Canada? Does the familiarity among Czech and Swiss players make them more dangerous? Which nation has the most to lose? And which Canadian player -- aside from Jordan Binnington -- does the tournament’s success hinge on the most?

Former Olympic hockey coach Dwayne Gylywoychuk joins the program to discuss his experience at the Winter Games. What are the pitfalls of a short tournament? How do you manage what is, almost literally, the most distraction-heavy event of them all?

Plus, a familiar face serves as the goaltending coach for Czechia, and Canada takes a blow during the group stage of the women’s preliminary round.

All that and more on today’s edition of Jets @ Noon.
