Description

First, Max and Corey talk about Max’s eight-day trip to Gothenburg, Sweden where he got a close-up look at a number of Detroit Red Wings prospects playing in the SHL, including Simon Edvinsson and Elmer Söderblom, as well as Corey’s trip to Boston, Massachusetts to check out the consolation and championship Beanpot games, with thoughts on Matt Coronato, TJ Semptimphelter, Jay O'Brien, and more.

Then, the guys jump into an Olympics recap and discuss Slovakia’s Juraj Slafkovsky’s special performance en route to a tournament MVP award and a potential jump to the top of this year’s NHL Draft, Brock Faber shouldering the load on Team USA’s blue line, Finland as the gold medal winner, and more.

Plus, the guys talk about some interesting players from Corey’s latest college, junior, and European free agent rankings who could find NHL homes, including Ben Meyers, Andrei Kuzmenko, and Strauss Mann, and they close things out with a discussion about prospects that could be moved at the trade deadline, with particular interest on the New York Rangers and Colorado Avalanche.
