Peter Laviolette Interview

Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by veteran NHL head coach Peter Laviolette to break down the fallout from the Radko Gudas knee-on-knee hit on Auston Matthews. Laviolette weighs in on the incident itself, what he expects from his team in terms of a response when a superstar gets targeted, and his thoughts on the league handing Gudas a five-game suspension.

The former Stanley Cup–winning bench boss also offers insight into what Craig Berube and the Maple Leafs coaching staff are going through right now, drawing parallels to the adversity he experienced behind the bench in New York last season. Laviolette explains how coaches try to block out the outside noise and focus on the job at hand during difficult stretches.

Plus, he opens up about what he’s looking for in his next head coaching opportunity.
