It's Season Two of The AHL Pre-Show! Andrew Rinaldi and Deanna McFeron are back to preview the upcoming week of American Hockey League games. Along the way - our hosts are sure to provide you with a healthy dose of chaotic energy, pop culture references, and everything in between as they break down the weekend action ahead.

Last week's talk of fun names and fun vibes got our hosts thinking: who has the best hockey name in the AHL? Blade Jenkins? Waltteri Ignatjew? Andrew and Dea can only think of one way to resolve this: tournament style. It's simple: each team has one "best" name submission and only one can hoist the Calder Cup of Names. Each week the hosts will debate until only the best hockey name in the AHL remains.

The crew follows up bracketology with the preview of the week's games. Andrew does more apologizing for dunking on the Barracuda, but the San Diego Gulls can't escape his wrath. Dea thinks Laval and Providence could turn the clock back to the 90's, and who is line to keep up their October momentum into November? The weather is getting colder but the action on the ice is just starting to heat up!

It's the hockiest hockey to ever have hockeyed, and you can catch it all this week on TAPS

It's Season Two of The AHL Pre-Show! Andrew Rinaldi and Deanna McFeron are back to preview the upcoming week of American Hockey League games. Along the way - our hosts are sure to provide you with a healthy dose of chaotic energy, pop culture references, and everything in between as they break down the weekend action ahead.

The crew goes over some big names coming in to make their debuts this season. One comes with a couple of Stanley Cup Rings (looking at you, Connor Sheary) while a couple others in the Pacific Northwest look to break through the lineup. (Arshdeep Bains and Erik Brannstrom on line 2).

While Dea does some investigative work on the upcoming Hall of Fame class, Andrew breaks down the beauty of Coachella Valley from National Parks to a beautiful round of 18 holes. Enticed yet to get in on the All-Star Game festivities this February?

Lastly, Andrew and Dea break down the schedule coming up. Joshua Roy leads the Rocket in the Space Race against Utica while Sheary gets his first look in a Crunch uniform against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. Did someone say Crunch? No, that was just Boko Imama crunching someone else on the boards. Who wins in the race of the running man this week? Tucson and Abbotsford will decide whose mascot is faster in a high-flying matchup you don't want to miss.

It's the hockiest hockey to ever have hockeyed, and you can catch it all this week on TAPS.

TAPS is back for another week of magic numbers and magic vibes. Join your hosts Andrew Rinaldi and Deanna McFeron as they navigate the playoff stretch of American Hockey League action.

The Western Conference Finals are in full swing, with Chris Driedger and the Coachella Valley Firebirds firmly in control of the series. With a 3-0 hole, what can Zach L'Heureux and the Milwaukee Admirals do? Well, besides getting kicked out of a few more games in this series. Andrew and Dea try to find the keys to a Midwestern comeback to add some real drama to what has felt like a dull Conference Final roundup altogether in the AHL.
