Summary

Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman run through potential roster moves around the league, including Edmonton’s situation with Andrew Mangiapane, while reacting to a candid Connor McDavid interview and the Battle of Florida heating up as the NHL’s best rivalry. They discuss J.J. Moser’s extension in Tampa, Matthew Tkachuk’s Winter Classic push, and trade and coaching chatter involving Philadelphia, Toronto, and Ottawa. The episode closes with notes on Jake DeBrusk’s healthy scratch, perspective on early World Juniors results, and a positive update on ECHL labour talks.
