First, Ian and Hailey break down the blockbuster trade between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Winnipeg Jets that sent disgruntled center Pierre-Luc Dubois to the Jets, returning Finnish sniper Patrick Laine and Jack Roslovic to the Jackets, Alexis Lafrenière’s slow start in the Big Apple, the Flames having a strange, five day break after playing just three games, and more.
Then, Detroit Red Wings forward Bobby Ryan joins the show to discuss his record-setting start with the team, how having a couple hundred fans in the building makes a huge difference for the vibe on the ice as opposed to playing in an empty arena, semi-bubble life on the road as the Wings prepare for four straight games at the Dallas Stars, his golf game, getting breakfast at the Boot & Blade during his time with Owen Sound Attack, and more.
Plus, to close things out, Ian and Hailey run through a series of Multiple Choice Madness questions and Hailey answers listener questions in another installment of the Hailbag.
