Summary

Jonathan Willis joins the show to discuss Connor McDavid's new contract and how much tougher it makes it to win when you're paying one player that much money (0:53), pushing your chips in and trying to go for it during his last cheap season (6:13), and what Leon Draisaitl is worth to the Oilers and why that makes him a prime offer sheet candidate (10:22). Then we preview this summer's free agent class by sifting through the available forwards, (26:01), defensemen (52:02), and goalies (1:08:42). Every episode of the podcast is available on iTunes, Soundcloud, Google Play, and Stitcher. Make sure to subscribe to the show so that you don’t miss out on any new episodes as they’re released.
