Last week, it was all about early season overreactions. Now some of those early season concerns in some markets are becoming more and more legitimate. In no city is that more true than Vancouver, where the Canucks went another week without getting a victory and things are fully off the rails. Frank and Jason discussed the comments from Bo Horvat, Jim Rutherford, and Bruce Boudreau. Can things get better in Vancouver or do they need to make some serious changes?They also talked about Sidney Crosby’s dominant start to the season and they debated where he could finish in the all-time scoring race. Is Crosby the kind of player who could be productive into his 40’s?Their big guest today was Dallas Star’s General Manager Jim Nill. His team is off to a flying start as one of the few teams remaining who hasn’t lost a game in regulation time. It was a busy summer though as Nill not only had to find a new coaching staff, he also made some big splashes in free agency and he had to lock up a few pieces of the teams core. Jim talked about building this version of the Dallas Stars, the transition from the Benn/Seguin core to the Heiskanen/Robertson core, and his career as an executive in the NHL.8:35 - Canucks struggles continue18:00 - Crosby’s early season dominance21:35 - Mullett Arena Opener36:40 - Jim Nill joins the show38:45 - The Stars busy summer46:35 - Transitioning cores51:10 - Wyatt Johnston53:40 - Roope Hintz Hosted on Acast.
