Who's most likely to still believe in the tooth fairy? Be a tree in Robinhood? Win a team wide game of hide and seek? If you thought this would be anything like your high school yearbook superlatives. You are very wrong.

We all have those NHL teams that we just despise, loathe, hate. They are the ultimate enemies in our minds, but eventually all wounds heal with time. Or perhaps one enemy is simply replaced by another. Today we talk about some of the teams we used to hate but maybe not so much anymore.

And just like how it usually goes, we record an episode or some content and a major piece of breaking news comes out. Well, we couldn't just let this one sit. Captain Avalanche Cory and Dom from the Tank breakdown Macklin Celebrini's record setting contract, if it's actually a discount, and what it mean's for the rest of the Sharks. All this from a fan perspective during our brand new CAF Minicasts!

A brand new bit of summer hockey content to satiate the craving. CAF Minicasts are bite sized pieces of thoughts, analysis and fun segments! Dude, where's Makar? Get it? We ponder this question as well as reflecting on the second season of this podcast as well as ponder a few more. What does the Leo Carlsson contract mean for the rest of the league? Is he even worth the money? Who did the Avalanche try and trade for? All the answers on the all new CAF Minicast!

Turns out we DID need an episode last week. So if you missed that go back and check out all the action that happened BEFORE the draft. Because this week we're talking about everything that happened during and after. (And actually a little more before too because timing). Right after last week the Avalanche made their final cap shedding move and then signed some critical defensive extensions. Then the draft finally arrived and let’s just say the Sharks are probably going to be the best team with the greatest roster of all time following this draft. But the Avs were not quiet either, picking up a tied record 9 picks in the 7 round format. Then FREE AGENCY! And boy was it a frenzy as people say. Sure the class was “lackluster” but that didn’t stop big money being handed out lengthy contracts being signed and the Avalanche and Sharks were in the midst of it all. Strap in because we have a lot to talk about and not a lot of time to do it on this week's episode of the Captain Avalanche Fancast.

First round picks are being moved on an hourly basis it seems. Some even more than once. Every other trade is a blockbuster. Franchises are being permanently altered and Captains are being traded and it feels like this is just the tip of the iceburg. All this before a draft with franchise altering players begins this friday.

And just like that the 2025-26 NHL Season has come to an end, a new Stanley Cup Champion has been crowned and while their celebration has just begun, the journey begins anew for 31 other clubs who will now restart their chase for the hardest trophy to win in sports. Today we’ll discuss Carolina’s dominance all the way through to their 34.5lb silver lift. Look at the winner and ultimate bragging rights holder of our bracket challenge. The Avalanche have already started making moves and this one was a forgone conclusion. Dom has another sneak peak at the Sharks drafting with an interesting piece. We revisit a missed discussion from last week with the NHL coaching carousel. We take some time to reflect on this season, both from the Avalanche side and this podcast's side of things and discuss with you, our loyal and amazing listeners, what’s next. This season is coming to an end and more on this week's episode of the Captain Avalanche Fancast.
