Plus, Max and Jesse break down the trade from the Wild side of the equation, discuss Friday’s second-biggest trade that saw the Pittsburgh Penguins send Tristan Jarry and Samuel Poulin to the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Stuart Skinner, Brett Kulak, and a 2029 second-round pick, and welcome The Athletic’s Matt Fairburn to the show to talk about Kevyn Adams’ future as Buffalo Sabres GM to close things out.Hosts: Max Bultman and Jesse GrangerWith: Thomas Drance and Matt FairburnExecutive Producer: Chris FlanneryProducer: Chris FlanneryWatch full episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@theathletichockeyshowJoin our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/VTm9VjkFSubscribe to The Athletic: https://theathletic.com/hockeyshow Hosted on Acast.
