[Behind Enemy Lines]

Highly recommend Gregor and Winters The Business of Hockey interview with Kevin Gilmore. Gilmore has done a deep dive on Stanley Cup winning roster construction which led to creating the "Model Contending Team" as well as a deep look at amateur drafting. Very interesting stuff. (2 hr:05 mark)

Agreed.
I just have such a tough time what an asshole Winters has seemed to be in the past. But it’s a real good segment and Winters actually seems like a decent guy. And he’s clearly very bright.

It's a really great segment and look at the NHL sports entertainment product through a different lens. Brings dimension to Winters ... who is still a bit of a prickly asshole haha. Still he is a smart guy and this segment gives great insight into the blindspots of traditional management, some of the new thinking and approaches like Gilmore's deep dive into team development and drafting, and wrapped with some funny stories and anecdotes. Much more substantive and deeper than other largely puff piece interviews with agents.
