Aug 19, 2024: Punting on Podkolzin and Rourke's apology after Lions loss.

Matt and guest co-host Patrick Johnston are joined by guests Farhan Lalji and John Shannon to discuss the Vasily Podkolzin trade. Will he come back to haunt the Canucks? Did this take the Oilers out of jail? Were there other destinations? They discuss why Podkolzin never panned out here, how he should have been a Rick Tocchet-style player, how he was rushed to the NHL, his lack of production and three misfires with top-10 picks. They also talk about how the Oilers should now be able to match offer sheets on Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway.
