Pete and Nick are joined by Jake Hahn from SiriusXM NHL Network Radio to break down the first few nights of the new season with all the fantasy and betting takeaways. The crew gives replacement options for injured Patrik Laine, reacts to a big return to the NHL for David Krejci and previews the rest of the week. Other topics covered include Matt Murray’s shaky Maple Leafs debut, Cole Caufield’s ceiling, the Oilers’ championship hopes, Oliver Bjorkstrand’s strong Kraken debut, why Artturi Lehkonen and Valeri Nichushkin are must-roster players from the Avalanche this season, Phil Kessel vs. Reilly Smith and Martin Necas' potential bounce-back season. The guys also answer fan questions debating Bruins goalies Jeremy Swayman vs. Linus Ullmark, Mika Zibanejad’s projected goal total and whether to hold Jakob Chychrun in fantasy before a potential trade.
