Summary

Jeff kicks off the show with the return of Elliotte Friedman after a two-day absence! They dive into the Patrick Kane pursuit and which teams were the most heavily pushing to sign the former 1st overall pick before he decided on Detroit. Later, the pair get into the areas the Leafs most need to address, their injury plagued blue line, and whether or not they will spend a high price on a big-name rental. Next, Jeff and Elliotte weigh in on what's next for Corey Perry, whether this is the end of his NHL career, if other teams are interested in his services, and the secrecy surrounding the situation that resulted in his contract termination. They end things off with a chat about Bill Guerin’s decision to fire Dean Evason and bring in Jon Hynes. 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.
