Summary

Jeff and Greg discuss Vegas’ Cup victory, Florida’s battered roster and how hard it is to be an overly physical team through four rounds. Next, the guys chat about the Panthers not being able to score “easy” goals, people that they thought of after the win and how Jack Eichel transformed the opinions of even his biggest detractors. To wrap up, Jeff and Greg look at the impact Vegas will have on league finances and future expansion before looking at the benefits handed to them with the expansion draft. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.
