Sorting Through the Trade Market for Defencemen

Jeff and Elliotte dive into Patrick Kane's debut with the Detroit Red Wings which resulted in a 6-5 overtime loss at the hands of the San Jose Sharks. They whip through a few stories from Thursday in the NHL including: the LA Kings continuing to roll, the Canucks breaking the Minnesota Wild's winning streak, and Leafs taking the battle of Ontario 4-3 over the Senators. Jeff and Elliotte dive into the defencemen market, and most notably the Leafs who have lost John Klingberg (13:11). They talk about the New Jersey Devils' role in the trade market (25:38) and discuss if Calgary will make a decision on their goaltending (35:02). Jeff and Elliotte touch on Philip Broberg and the resurgent Edmonton Oilers (44:25) and wrap the podcast by talking about the Shohei Ohtani sweepstakes (1:02:47).

The guys answer your questions in the Montana’s Thought Line (51:24).
