Summary

Jeff and Elliotte kick off the show breaking down the Devils' decision to part ways with Head Coach Lindy Ruff. Then, Elliotte brings clarity to reports surrounding Jeremy Swayman’s contract talks, the Bruins' trade deadline plans, and more. Next, the pair discuss who Nashville could be looking to add to their top-six, the future of Jakob Chychrun, and where Alex Wennberg will go. Later, Jeff and Elliotte weigh in on last night’s Kraken-Flames matchup and Martin Pospisil’s ejection, Alexander Nylander’s first career NHL hat trick helping hand Vegas their eighth loss in their last ten games, and who Florida is keeping an eye on ahead of March 8th.
