More rough stuff in NHL pre-season action, while the Toronto Maple Leafs have looked into an extension for one of its top young players. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on the rough stuff between the Montreal Canadiens and Ottawa Senators, following Arber Xhekaj's hit on Tim Stutzle and the debate around how the pre-season is seeing a lot of rough play and injuries to key players. Mike and Dave move on to the report from Elliotte Friedman that the Leafs have explored a contract extension with Matthew Knies and how the front office views it as an important building block for the future but what is the right contract for both sides? Mike and Dave then move on to the news from the NHL Board of Governors looking into potentially shortening the pre-season and the salary cap projection.
