The Rise of David Carle

In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman highlight the NHL demand for Head Coach David Carle who just secured his second straight World Junior gold medal for the USA. Once the fellas finish opining over the World Juniors, they focus on Auston Matthews' first two games back with the Toronto Maple Leafs (10:20). That makes way for a conversation about the crossroads that the Boston Bruins are facing (15:00). Kyle and Elliotte talk about the Ottawa Senators who are firmly in the playoff race out East but without Linus Ullmark. Do they go out and get a stopgap (17:21)? The guys delve into the intricacies of Frank Vatrano's extension and the future of deferred salaries in the NHL (27:16) and Elliotte highlights Canes forwards Eric Robinson as a player to keep an eye on with regards to a contract extension (41:30). The Final Thought focuses on the continued drama surrounding the Vancouver Canucks' two star forwards (45:11).
