Welcome to Daily Faceoff Live with Tyler Yaremchuk, David Pagnotta and Steven Ellis!

We start the show with an injury update in Toronto. Defensive stalwart Chris Tanev will likely miss the remainder of the regular season after considering surgery for a groin injury. How can the Leafs replace the veteran shutdown defender?

The San Jose Sharks have signed center Alex Wennberg to a three-year contract extension with a $6 million AAV. The Sharks still have eight pending UFAs on their roster and are projected to have just under $50 million in cap space for next season. Will San Jose make any big splashes at the trade deadline or over the summer to bolster their young, talented core?

The Vancouver Canucks continue to sit at the bottom of the Pacific Division, and trade talk is heating up around power forward Kiefer Sherwood. Meanwhile, the Nashville Predators are climbing the standings, but could veteran forward Steven Stamkos still be on the move as contending teams look to add a proven winner ahead of a potential Stanley Cup run?

Steven Ellis joins the show for a World Juniors Gold Medal Preview. We’ll talk about Canada’s loss to Czechia, how this year compares to recent tournaments, the Czechia–Sweden matchup, how top draft-eligible players have performed, and his medal predictions for tonight.
