Summary

Jeff and Elliotte kick off the show breaking down the craziness that transpired between Cutter Gauthier and the Flyers organization that lead to the trade last night. The pair discuss the prospect's change of heart regarding playing for the Flyers and how he handled the situation, before trying to make sense out of all of the crazy rumours including Kevin Hayes' alleged involvement, what the move means for both teams, how other GM’s handled not leaking the trade request, and which teams outside of Anaheim were interested. Later, they break down why the Ducks were willing to move on from Jamie Drysdale, what he brings to the Flyers' powerplay, and how John Tortorella plans to use him. Finally, Jeff and Elliotte finish off by diving into some of the biggest games on the schedule tonight, the importance of the Sabres' next stretch of games, and the state of the Sharks amidst their losing streak. 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.
