Seeing as we've only got a few days worth of games under our belts so far, it's difficult to make any definitive statements one way or another. With that being said, there have been a couple of noteworthy takeaways that have cropped up and will be worth keeping an eye on as the season goes along.

In this edition of the podcast we spend a healthy amount of the show gushing about the chaotic work of art that is 3-on-3 overtime. We also look into whether defensive atrocities like the Avalanche and Bruins can be salvaged, and what's wrong with the Kings in the early going.

All episodes of the podcast are available on both Soundcloud (www.soundcloud.com/hockeypdocast) and iTunes (https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-hockey-pdocast/id1045850849). We'd appreciate if you took the time to not only subscribe, but also leave a nice review.
