About this Episode
Welcome to Daily Faceoff Live with Tyler Yaremchuk and Carter Hutton!
We start the show with a holiday edition of Man of the Weekend, as the guys give their picks for Man of the Holidays. Tyler chose the overtime hero for the Minnesota Wild, while Carter went with the player who scored his first career hat trick in Pittsburgh.
The Buffalo Sabres can’t stop winning! Over the holidays, the Sabres picked up two more victories to extend their winning streak to eight games. They now sit fifth in the Atlantic Division and just miss out on the second wildcard spot due to the tiebreaker being owned by Florida. Can the Sabres finally break their playoff drought?
The World Juniors dropped the puck on their 50th edition on Friday. There have already been some exciting games, including a few scares for perennial powerhouses. Latvia once again proved to be a thorn in Canada’s side, taking them to overtime before falling 2–1 on a Michael Hage winner. Germany and Switzerland both stuck around against the host Americans, who could be without defender Cole Hutson after he took a puck to the head in their 2–1 victory over Switzerland on Saturday. Sweden remains undefeated after surviving a tight opening-game test from Slovakia. Finland looks like the top dog so far after dominant wins over Denmark and Latvia, but can the Finns keep the scoring going against the likes of Czechia and Canada?
David Pagnotta from The Fourth Period joins the show for The Insider Notebook. We’ll discuss which team has boosted its stock the most in 2025, which GM we should be watching to make moves in 2026, and get an update on contract talks between the Philadelphia Flyers and Christian Dvorak.
