Segment 1:

6:30: Brandon Montour and Josh Mahura's return

11:30: The Justin Sourdif game

Segment 2 (with Alex):

19:00: What was it like covering the 4 Nations in person in both cities?

31:00: The Panthers aspect of the 4 Nations

35:45: The Matthew Tkachuk of it all

47:45: Alex's trade deadline thoughts

Segment 3:

51:00: Oilers!

57:50: Ryan Lomberg's return
