About this episode
The episode discusses the major trade of Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers and its implications for the NHL.
This episode couldn't wait till morning... The NHL offseason just delivered its biggest shocker yet.

The guys discuss the assets Ottawa received, whether more moves are coming, and why this trade may only be the first step in a much larger offseason plan for the Senators. They also examine Seattle's acquisition of Mackie Samoskevich, the Edmonton Oilers signing Jason Dickinson to a long-term extension, and what Mike Babcock's arrival could mean for Edmonton heading into a crucial season.
