Summary

Chris Johnston joins the show to discuss the bizarre situation that resulted in Dennis Wideman's 20-game suspension, and how it raises bigger questions about the faulty concussion protocol the league currently has in place. We also look into Sidney Crosby's resurgence since a slow start to the year, whether Connor McDavid could (and should) make a comeback to win the Calder Trophy, and if the loser point will cause a gridlock on trade deadline day.
