They pivot to the NHL to discuss Mikko Rantanen's road ahead after settling in with his new club, how the Hurricanes have rebounded after the trade, and how Sergei Bobrovsky has rejuvenated his career. Bukes also takes some time to chat about the greatest trades that never were, Aleksander Barkov's development, the intricacies of scouting, and much more!
