Description
Sportsnet.ca writer and former pro scout Jason Bukala joins Nick and Justin to discuss a number of topics, including the potential for a rising salary cap, the potential for the NHL Draft to look like the NFL Draft in coming years, and to break down the prospect pool that each Canadian NHL franchise currently has (0:21). Can any of the Canadiens, Oilers, Canucks, or Leafs go out and make an impactful trade for a defenceman? Plus, could Logan Cooley push Connor Bedard for the Calder Trophy? Afterwards, Sam joins Nick and Justin to debate the contract given to Jack Hughes, what Matty Beniers is asking for, and if we might eventually see the end of the 'bridge deal'.
