About this episode
In this episode of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman set up Mitch Marner’s return to Toronto and how online discourse shaped his time with the Maple Leafs. They recap Thursday night’s action around the league, including Sabres–Canadiens (22:00) and the guys discuss Josh Doan’s new deal (25:00), why teams should be careful not to disrupt good chemistry, and Steven Stamkos finding his form after a difficult start (36:00). They also get into Ottawa’s loss to Nashville and the Predators’ continued playoff push, (37:00) Lukas Dostal’s rising international profile (38:30), Shane Wright’s availability in Seattle (43:00), lingering questions around Elias Pettersson’s no-trade clause (49:00), and speculation linking the Kings to Artemi Panarin (53:00). Final Thought focuses on Seth Jones withdrawing from Team USA and Jackson LaCombe earning the call (1:00:00). Kyle and Elliotte answer crowd questions in the Thoughtline (1:12:12). Today we highlight Toronto-born hip-hop artist Lex Leosis and her song sayso. Check her out here. Listen to all the 32 Thoughts music here.
