- Hockey
With just a few weeks to go until the regular season gets started, we began our yearly division preview series and it only made sense to start with the division that features the reigning Stanley Cup Champions. We did a deep dive on the Avs and were joined by their new General Manager Chris MacFarland. He talked about inking Nathan MacKinnon to a record-setting contract extension, his journey to becoming a GM, and how the rest of the Avs roster is looking after a short summer.
Jason and Frank also gave their thoughts on every other team in the Central Division. There are two clear 'have-nots' with the Blackhawks and Coyotes both clearly planning to 'suck hard for Bedard' as Frank would say. There are some intriguing teams in the middle of this division though and perhaps no one has more on the line than the Winnipeg Jets, who had quite a bit of off-ice drama over the last few months. Fans of the Dallas Stars are also holding their breath as Jason Robertson still doesn't have a contract. Frank gave us the latest on that as well.
Tyler Yaremchuk also stopped by for a new edition of 'Fill in the Blank' delivered by DoorDash.
