We open with the chaos of Buffalo’s wild 8–7 win over Tampa Bay, featuring terrible goaltending, tons of goals, and another massive fight. It leads into a bigger conversation about whether fighting is still essential to hockey and why Tampa chose to start their backup goalie in such an important division matchup. 
Around the sports world, we react to Bam Adebayo’s 83-point night and whether anyone could ever challenge Wilt Chamberlain’s legendary 100-point record. We also check in on the World Baseball Classic and the start of the Formula One season with George Russell taking the first win of 2026. 
Back in the NHL, we discuss winners and losers from the trade deadline, build our tiers for teams the rest of the season, and react to news around the league involving players like Nick Schmaltz, Roope Hintz, Brad Marchand, and Sidney Crosby. We also look at betting value for the NHL’s major awards, open the Panic Room on a few struggling players, and close with thoughts on the JJ Peterka deal, NCAA signings, and dynasty sleepers before wrapping up the show.

In this episode we get into the chaos of NHL trade deadline season. We start by talking about some of our favourite deadline moves ever, from shocking deals to trades that turned out to be perfect fits. From Hall to Boston to O’Reilly in Toronto, we break down the moves that stood out the most.

After a quick life update and a look at what’s happening around the sports world, we dive into projecting the biggest fantasy winners and losers coming out of the deadline. We talk about players who could see their value skyrocket with new opportunities and others who might take a hit depending on where they land.

We also run through the latest trade rumours and deals around the league, including major names potentially on the move and some surprising teams that could shake up the market in the final hours. Then we each predict where some of the biggest names could end up if they are moved.

To wrap things up, we get into what’s on our minds around the league, including the idea of a Robertson for Brady Tkachuk swap and why insiders keep leaking trades before players have even agreed to them.

We get into our latest waiver wire targets before diving into NHL trade rumors, breaking down who could be buying, who might be selling, and how it could shift the balance for contenders and bubble teams. To close, we share what’s on our mind, from milestone chases and a rising top prospect to big-market pressure and whether one front office is quietly building something long term.
