134: Pete DeBoer on Resetting, Reflecting, and Readying for The NHL's Return to Olympic Hockey in 2026.

Pete DeBoer joins John Shannon and Daren Millard on 100% Hockey to share where he’s at during an unexpected break from coaching — his first real time away from the bench in nearly twenty years. DeBoer talks about adjusting to life without the daily grind of an NHL schedule, how he’s staying connected to the game, and what this pause has taught him. With his role on Hockey Canada’s staff for the 2026 Olympic Games , DeBoer also gives a detailed look at the early stages of Team Canada’s selection process — from identifying the right mix of players to the timeline leading into February’s tournament. He discusses what fans can expect when Olympic hockey arrives and how the coaching group is shaping its vision for Milan.
