As the calendar rolls over into the year 2023, we at the Two Man Forecheck wish everyone a fabulous new year and much luck in whatever you do! Here we continue with the hockey talk, but start with sad news of the passing of Kris Letang's father. He wasn't scheduled to play today however this is a blow to the Letang family and we send our prayers and condolences to them. Matthew Poitras recorded a hat trick on December 28 and was player of the night. The Bruins may have something here based on his performance over the last season and a half. Jamie Benn has moved into second in goals scored for the Dallas Stars, but is still 200+ goals behind Mike Modano. Will Jamie catch him? Patrice Bergeron is in 3rd in points for Bruins all time with Esposito (an ongoing theme), but is there any movement in other categories for the 5 time Selke winner? Connor Bedard is clearly going to be the number one overall pick this year, but his WJC stats indicate that he is clearly something special. Ovi has recorded his 30th hat trick of his career, which puts him at 806. He will catch Gretzky, but will he get to 1,000 goals? Finally we close out the first show of the new year with some second half questions that can only be answered over the course of the next few months. So join in and start a new tradition listening to the Two Man Forecheck. Let us know what you think and...Enjoy the Show! Happy New Year!
