Summary

Jeff chats with Tampa Bay Lighting analyst Brian Engblom about the acquisition of Tanner Jeannot, the price that was paid for the forward, and the task ahead for the team to go on a deep run. Nashville Predators President and General Manager David Poile looks at the state of his team ahead of the deadline and why the timing was right for him to step down from his post at the end of June, before reflecting on his legacy in Nashville (18:15). Sportsnet's Luke Fox wraps things up with his thoughts on Kyle Dubas’ aggressiveness, how the Maple Leafs could accommodate Matt Murray coming off the LTIR, and if there's been a conversation with Mark Giordano about resting ahead of the playoffs (47:36). 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.
