Ready for another round? The new season is at our doorstep and, with it, comes our season preview show with long-time Canadian commentator and host of The Sheet Podcast, Jeff Marek.
We'll be talking the new era of money as it pertains to player contacts and free agency, new faces behind the bench and who may be on the hot seat, plus players and teams to look out for as the Florida Panthers look to three-peat despite having to deal with some key injuries.
IN THIS EPISODE:
[02:15] - Show me the money! Minnesota Wild forward Kirill Kaprizov got a visit from the Brinks truck with Connor McDavid's situation still looming. As big as these new contracts are getting, Jeff believes we've come to a point we need to get comfortable with that.
[06:44] - McDavid's potential term with Leon Draisaitl starting a new eight-year deal while RFA Evan Bouchard opted for half that length.
[13:49] - Not all of these contracts work out as well as the day they are signed. A discussion of which deals may wind up being albatrosses around a team's neck.
[21:46] - Amidst the big money, perhaps some bargains out there as well.
[29:30] - Nine new head coaches this season. Taking a look at who will make the biggest impact in his first season with their new team.
[35:50] - Coaches who might be looking over their shoulders should their teams have a slow start.
[40:08] - The panel weighs in with their breakout players
[46:09] - Power shifts. The teams which start to rise and those who might be in for a slip.
[51:05] - Teams which may sneak in if one of the regulars slip up.
[56:33] - The Florida Panthers are behind the eight ball from the start of the season in their quest to do something no team since the 1982 Islanders did, win three straight Stanley Cups.
[1:01:01] - Picks for the Final.
[1:06:18] - A personal note from Vic and Neil with a new season upon us.
