About this episode
The crew is live in Nashville, Tennessee for a draft week edition of the podcast. There are a lot of rumors flying around as the league all convene in ‘The Music City’ for the NHL Draft. Pierre-Luc Dubois, Kevin Hayes, and Torey Krug have all had their names thrown around over the last few days and Frank gave an update on the status of a few deals that we’ve been hearing about over the last 48 hours. There are a handful of General Managers who will be very busy this week including Craig Conroy in Calgary, Danny Briere in Philadelphia, and Doug Armstrong in St. Louis. Frank says that there’s a chance that Armstrong moves two of the three first-round picks that he owns. Gregor gave some names that he thinks could be fits in those markets. When it comes to the actual draft, the biggest question is where will Matvei Michkov go? The Russian prospect is undoubtedly one of the best talents in the draft, but his contract status in the KHL could hurt his stock. Frank gave one team that he thinks could take the risk. Tyler hopped in for a Nashville-themed edition of Buy or Sell where he asked the guys about the vibes in Tennessee. They also talked about the NHL Awards before getting to their interview with Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekäläinen. He talked to the guys about his plan with the third-overall pick, his busy start to the offseason, and what else he hopes to accomplish this summer. 1:22 - Kings & Dubois 7:05 - The Flyers’ plans 19:10 - Blues & their first-rounders 24:00 - Where will Michkov go? 28:10 - The Coyotes & their picks 42:40 - The Jets & Hellebuyck 45:50 - NHL Awards Want to hear more from Frank, Jason and the entire DFO team?
