Aaron Dell has a date with Player Safety, Keith Yandle is the NHL's newest Ironman and Team Canada 2002 celebration turns 20

Rob Pizzo from CBC Sports, along with Sara Civian and Jesse Granger from the Athletic discuss Keith Yandle's record setting iron man streak, trendsetter Emilie Castonguay who becomes just the second women ever to hold the position of Assistant General Manager in the NHL, when she left the agent business for a position with the Vancouver Canucks and the illegal check thrown by goalie Aaron Dell, and the subsequent injury to Drake Batherson. The roundtable also discusses the on going issue of racial abuse in the sport, with ECHL defender Jacob Panetta who allegedly used a racial gesture in a game vs Jordan Subban this week. Plus the crew pays respect to NHL legend Clark Gillies and stick taps Henrik Lundqvist who will have his jersey retired by the Rangers this week. Author Tim Wharnsby stops by to promote his new book, Gold: How Gretzky's Men Ended Canada's 50-Year Olympic Hockey Drought. Tim discusses the access he was granted, speaking with 23 of the players on the roster and manager Wayne Gretzky on the 20th anniversary of the Gold Medal win, with some wonderful behind the scenes stories as Canada finally triumphed at the Winter Olympics in hockey.
