About this episode
Shayna Goldman joins the show with a sharp breakdown of why Quinn Hughes has become the NHL’s most delicate front-office decision point and why any New Jersey–Vancouver conversation has to start at a true MVP valuation, not a feel-good family storyline. She digs into how the league overcorrected from the classic “200-foot” label to now facing a real Olympic-ice identity crisis with the 197-foot wrinkle in Milan, and what that means for player roles, roster construction, and coaching language. From right-shot depth in New Jersey to Vancouver’s fear of committing long-term without progress, Shayna explains the market mechanics, the risk of rushing a deal, and why every contender should at least be kicking tires when a defenseman of Hughes’ tier even becomes theoretically available. Smart, blunt, and context-rich, her segment cuts through rumor noise and gets into actual leverage and design.
