Episode 0228: Post Mortem: Isles and Knights; Kerry Fraser Tweet; Lehner Motivation; J.T. Brown joins Kraken TV Crew; Hakstol New Kraken Coach; Tom Kurvers Passes; GM of the Year Award and More!

The Stanley Cup Final is upon us!  We at the Two Man Forecheck are ready for this and we have many stories regarding the teams which will take part in the festivities.  Starting with a post mortem for the Isles and the Golden Knights, we break down a tweet from Kerry Fraser regarding the officiating in this year's playoffs and a tweet from Robin Lehner explaining his motivation prior to game 4 against the Canadiens.  We talk about awards...even ones not given out by the NHL.  The Sports Representative of the Year was Octagon...they rep many players across all the sports including Jaro Halak and Marc-Andre Fleury.  Also, the GM of the Year goes to Lou Lamoriello and the Messier Award goes to Patrice Bergeron.  The Kraken make some noise hiring Dave Hakstol as their first head coach and J.T. Brown officially retires and joins the Kraken TV crew.  Tom Kurvers, 11 year NHL vet and assistant GM of the Wild and Lightning has passed away at 58.  We extend our deepest condolences to his family and extended NHL Family.  We mention a couple other tweets from Andrew Taverna (a poll regarding Bergeron as a top 5 two way forward) and Joey Vendetta (regarding Matt Martin).  We break down the All USHL teams 1-3 and finally give our picks for the Stanley Cup.  A packed show to be sure, and plenty to comment on so give us your feedback and Enjoy the Show!
