Hello Hockey Fans, take a listen to Episode 159 of the Hockey Free For all Podcast to get you’re your hockey fix, this week’s topics include-
#1. Florian Xhekaj will be a very important player for the Montreal Canadiens.
#2. The Compensation package for players that could or might be available around the NHL are off the charts ridiculous. Teams are asking for more than what the Edmonton Oilers got for Wayne Gretzky, and no player in the league today even comes remotely close to Wayne Gretzky.
#3. There are multiple reasons beyond just the supposed 2nd center need to swap Filip Mesar with the Carolina Hurricane for Ryan Suzuki.
#4. Anybody else starting to draw comparisons of Johnathan Drouin and Kirby Dach?
#5. A trade of Kirby Dach to the Philadelphia Flyers for defenseman Jamie Drysdale is a legit scenario only because both of these players are entering the final year of their current contracts, so it’s a one-year test for both the Montreal Canadiens and the Philadelphia Flyers.
#6. Logan Mailloux, David Reinbacher and Adam Engstrom should all have first shots at roster position before anyone from the outside does.
#7. Cayden Primeau should be the number 1 goalie in Laval. He turned his season around, He’s carried the team, He had an enormous role in getting the team to where they are at and he’s earned it, as for the summer, its TDB!
#8. The 2024/2025 Stanley Cup Final will be a repeat of the 2023/2024 Stanley Cup Final as both the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers have made it all the way back in a rematch.
#9. The Montreal Canadiens do not need to sign pending free agent Left Winger Nikolaj Ehlers of the Winnipeg Jets.
#10. Trade Patrik Laine to either the Pittsburgh Penguins or the Vancouver Canucks for the 11th or 15th overall pick respectively.
#11. I say Mitch Marner ends up in one of 3 teams. Either the Las Vegas Golden knights or the Florida Panthers because of tax and weather reasons, or the Kyle Dubas factor with the Pittsburgh Penguins.
