On the NHL podcast with Joe Lami the NHL All-Star is being hosted in Nashville and Joe goes over why Nashville is one of the most preferred cities to visit by NHL teams and why the city is so successful and in getting awarded the All-Star game.

The Montreal Canadiens need to be back on track real soon as they’ve lost four their last five games and without All-Star goalie Carey Price whose absence has effected the team. Joe discusses when Price should be back and how it’s effected the team on the ice and in the dressing room.

The Ottawa Sentators forward Mike Hoffman was injured in the second period in Monday night’s game in San Jose. Hoffman at 5:40 of the second period collided with Sharks goaltender Alex Stalock, Hoffman’s momentum drew him into the goal post and Hoffman lost his helmet in the collision and had to leave the game.
