The 1-3-1 Podcast

You get a contract! And you get a contract! 

In Episode 24, the boys get together and break down one of the craziest days of the year - NHL Free Agency. We cover some of the biggest signings of the day as well as some trades that have occurred leading up to Free Agency. It'll be interesting to see where players end up since the NHL salary cap will remain the same through next season.
