Episode 263: You Couldn't Do Worse If You Tried

Frank Seravalli joins the show to discuss Ron Hextall's departure in Philadelphia (0:00), the Oilers hiring Ken Hitchcock (17:05), the William Nylander contract situation and how it'll impact future prominent restricted free agents (30:10), and the Dylan Strome trade (46:50).

Sponsoring today’s show is SeatGeek, which is making it easier than ever before to buy and sell sports and concert tickets. They’re giving our listeners a $10 rebate off of their first purchase. All you have to do is download the free SeatGeek app and enter the promo code PDO to get started.

Also sponsoring today’s show is For Hims, which will serve as a one-stop shop for all of your hair loss, skincare, and other wellness supplement needs. They’ll connect you with real doctors and medical grade solutions, while sparing you the embarrassment of in-doctor visits and saving you the time you would’ve otherwise spent sitting in a waiting room. Just go to forhims.com/pdo and answer a few quick questions, a doctor will review your file and prescribe what you need, and the products will be shipped directly to your door. As my listener, if you let them know we’ve sent you you’ll even get a trial month for just $5 right now while supplies last. See the website for full details.

One final sponsor today: PuckPedia. It’s the ultimate resource for hockey fans, containing salary cap information, basic and advanced stats, draft and transaction history, news feeds, game previews, and injury updates. It’s also the exclusive home of the Agent Leaderboard, which shows who the top agents are and lists which players they represent. Regardless of what you’re looking for, it’s got it, which means that you no longer need to be switching between multiple different sites in the pursuit of information.
