Coast To Coast – Episode 1 – Gritty, The Best and Worst of Canada and a 2018-19 Season Preview

Coast To Coast – Episode 1 – Gritty, The Best and Worst of Canada and a 2018-19 Season Preview

The Canadians are back and like last season, they’re already talking about mascots. Except this season, they’re all in love with Philly’s latest creation, Gritty.

Matt Best, Christian Marin, and Nick Andrade chat about the upcoming NHL season and go through a plethora of topics including if the W̶h̶a̶l̶e̶r̶s̶ Hurricanes nailed their throwback jerseys.

If you’re a Canadiens or Senators fan, you might want to get a plate of your favourite comfort food and a nice drink because the crew isn’t too kind to two of Canada’s clubs. On the flip side, you’ll be quite happy if you’re a Leafs or Jets fan.

Welcome back & get ready for a season to remember from the north!
