Deb Placey sits down with Nashville Predators General Manager David Poile, the winningest GM in NHL history.

Poile shares a story about a letter that his father Bud Poile, a member of the Maple Leafs 1947 Stanley Cup winning team, sent to Leafs’ then general manager Conn Smythe from his post during the Second World War (13:30), recounts the time he traded Capitals owner Abe Pollin’s favorite player (15:23) and the thought process behind trading for P.K. Subban (19:35). He details how he guided the Predators from expansion to contention (21:14), provides insight into his favorite wines (27:40) and how he overcame an eye injury suffered in practice (32:05)
