First up, The Athletic’s own Tarik El-Bashir joins the show to break down how the Washington Capitals have once again found themselves near the top of the NHL standings despite an aging roster, if the franchise will look to upgrade their goaltending at the trade deadline, and who they might target, Alex Ovechkin’s pursuit of Wayne Gretzky’s goal-scoring record, and much more.
Plus, Ian and Hailey discuss the Vancouver Canucks’ COVID-19 crisis, and whether or not the team should play again this season, as upwards of fourteen players and coaches have been added to the protocols list, less-than-normal trade chatter a week away from the NHL trade deadline, and a round of Multiple Choice Madness to close things out.
