Is Toronto the Wrong Place for Nicholas Robertson?

This week on The Hockey News On The 'A' Podcast with Jacob Stoller and Patrick Williams: - Pittsburgh and Vancouver swap depth defensemen, exchanging Jack Rathbone for Mark Friedman. Jacob and Pat dissect the deal for both teams, while also discussing what this means for Rathbone – a once highly regarded prospect. - Nicholas Robertson is lighting it up. With five points in his first two games, he looks too good for the AHL, yet again. The guys discuss how Robertson is in the wrong place at the wrong time and could very well make some NHL rosters – even ones contending for playoff spots. - Prospect of the week: Brad Lambert. The 19-year-old recorded three points in his first three games. He looked assertive, confident and poised in his first weekend of the 2023-24 AHL season. - Team of the week: Montreal Canadiens: Jacob and Patrick discuss the growing crop of prospects in Laval, namely Joshua Roy, Sean Farrell, Emil Heineman and Riley Kidney. - Around the 'A': Pat empties his weekly notebook, discussing the Hershey Bears raising the Calder Cup banner, encouraging starts to the year for Brennan Othmann and Logan Stankoven, and much more.
