Frederic Out + Rodrigue Starts vs Ducks – EST Afternoons – 04-07-25

Trent Frederic is confirmed out until the playoffs, with Olivier Rodrigue making his first NHL start for the Oilers as they test their luck in Anaheim for the final game of their California road trip! Edmonton got shut out 3-0 by the Kings in LA during another game without Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl Saturday night in a contest that saw Frederic reaggrivate his ankle injury!

And Wayne Gretzky’s historic record of 894 all-time regular season goals was broken by The Great Eight yesterday when he beat Ilya Sorokin, high blocker side from his office at the top of the left circle! Capitals writer, Mr. Tom Gulitti from NHL.com, phones into the show to talk about the momentous occasion, his thoughts on the celebration and the overall impact of Ovechkin on the game.

Plus, the Jays have signed Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to a MONSTER 14-year 500 million 500-million-dollar contract! Ian Harrison, who covers the Blue Jays for the Associated Press, hops on the program to talk about the deal the Jays cut for their superstar, how the season has gone in the early going, and so much more!
