A coaching staff / player should have a blank slate at beginning of of each year. Down year up year doesn’t always translate to this current year.
Weber is a long first E if you are a Utah native, even though it's spelled exactly like the grill. It's the name of the county Ogden is in as well as a canyon and river there.
Send him to Pittsburgh for future considerations and free up that 2 million cap space problem solved
When do you guys think Logan Cooley is going to get signed?
I am new to hockey and would like to learn some more of the rules: high sticking or icing etc. Would you do an episode series like that for me?
With rumors of GMBA making offers (or planned to in Marchands case) to other free agents like Brad and Nikolaj Ehlers, do you think there is one last large move that Bill is trying make before camp starts?
Man these guys are difficult to listen to 👎🏻
