Description

<p>Quinn Hughes is officially a member of the Minnesota Wild, scoring a goal in a 6-2 win over the Boston Bruins in his debut Sunday night, but there’s still plenty more to discuss around the blockbuster deal that sent him out of Vancouver. On today’s episode, The Athletic’s Thomas Drance once again joins the show to give his thoughts on the post-Hughes world for the Canucks. Plus, Max and Jesse break down the trade from the Wild side of the equation, discuss Friday’s second-biggest trade that saw the Pittsburgh Penguins send Tristan Jarry and Samuel Poulin to the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for Stuart Skinner, Brett Kulak, and a 2029 second-round pick, and welcome The Athletic’s Matt Fairburn to the show to talk about Kevyn Adams’ future as Buffalo Sabres GM to close things out.</p><br><p>Hosts: Max Bultman and Jesse Granger</p><p>With: Thomas Drance and Matt Fairburn</p><p>Executive Producer: Chris Flannery</p><p>Producer: Chris Flannery</p><br><p>Watch full episodes on YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@theathletichockeyshow" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@theathletichockeyshow</a></p><br><p>Join our Discord Server: <a href="https://discord.gg/VTm9VjkF" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://discord.gg/VTm9VjkF</a></p><br><p>Subscribe to The Athletic: <a href="https://theathletic.com/hockeyshow" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://theathletic.com/hockeyshow</a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
