Sean Avery is back breaking down what's happening around the NHL — from struggling teams and coaching decisions to player fashion, hockey culture and the energy inside an NHL locker room.

Sean introduces his idea of a Director of Fun: someone whose job is to get players energized, loosen up the room and help teams bring more intensity to the ice. He discusses the Philadelphia Flyers' slow start, the Vancouver Canucks' lack of identity and why he believes NHL coaches need to do more to connect with their players.

Plus, Sean weighs in on the Edmonton Oilers fan reportedly ejected for waving an Alberta flag, the Calgary Flames' winless start, the Los Angeles Kings, Montreal's exciting young team and the latest NHL player fashion trends.

He also discusses the new PWHL jerseys, Igor Shesterkin's injury and the possibility of Jonathan Quick returning to the New York Rangers. Later, Sean looks at Connor Hellebuyck's contract holdout, breaks down a fight between Mark Stone and Brandon Montour, and defends his signature hockey-stick pointer presentation style.

Sean Avery is back with another episode of The Sean Avery Show — and the NHL season is finally here.

This week, Sean Avery talks Gavin McKenna, William Nylander, Mike Babcock, the Edmonton Oilers, NHL fitness testing, analytics, scouting and what it takes to succeed in the NHL. Sean breaks down Gavin McKenna's mentality ahead of his first NHL game and explains why he believes the young star is ready for the pressure.

He also weighs in on William Nylander and the Toronto Maple Leafs, arguing that Nylander should be the team's leader, while discussing Auston Matthews, the Leafs and what Toronto needs from its stars. Sean also dives into the latest Mike Babcock comments, including Babcock's "tree versus a shrub" description of Shakir Mukhamadullin, and explains why he believes Babcock understands how to connect with everyday hockey fans.

Plus, Sean gives his take on the NHL eliminating fitness testing, shares his thoughts on Macklin Celebrini, reacts to Sidney Crosby's tribute to Marc-Andre Fleury, discusses Justin Verlander's final game, and explains why NHL teams should invest more in scouting and former players instead of relying so heavily on analytics.
