New Philadelphia Flyers GM, and former NHL centreman, Daniel Briere joins the pod! Briere spoke on the transition from his playing career to an NHL front-office, the overwhelming feeling of starting his tenure as GM, and the advantage of having worked his way up within the Flyers organization. Plus, the Ivan Provorov trade, rumours surrounding Laughton and Konecny, and more! In Headlines, the guys discuss an already active off-season, and the many trade considerations ahead of the NHL Draft. Brett Pesce is a hot-topic as the talented defender could be on his way out of Carolina; could the Edmonton Oilers be a fit? Would Connor Brown help round-out the Oilers lineup? Alex Debrincat made his intention to leave the Senators known, and the scoring winger is sure to garner a lot of interest around the league. The guys discuss Debrincat’s decision, and Ray cautions teams not to give up too much if they don’t already have a playmaker to create offence.  Victor Olofsson might be the odd-man-out in Buffalo as the winger notched 28 goals, and has one-year left on his contract. Ray touts the forward’s value as someone who can ‘light the lamp’. Plus, Erik Karlsson trade rumours and if it’s possible for San Jose Sharks GM Mike Grier to offload the (likely) Norris Trophy winner’s $11 million salary. Kris Abbott returns from his overseas hiatus, as the trio discuss Betano.ca releasing odds for the 2024 Stanley Cup champion. Kris discusses how bettors can play an early hunch on next year’s cup odds, and identifies the favourites after the Vegas Golden Knights cup-win. Plus, golf’s US Open and the possible victors after an underwhelming 1st round.  Follow us here!
