Show Notes
On the USA edition of TAHS Craig Custance and Sean Gentille talk about the lack of fanfare in Chicago with Duncan Keith being dealt to Edmonton from the Blackhawks. The guys discuss the continued distraction in Chicago, with the sexual assault investigation ramping up, plus, what future could general manager Stan Bowman have with the team, after the investigation is completed?
Craig and Sean turn the page on the Stanley Cup Final, and welcome Scott Wheeler ahead of the NHL draft. The guys get into Scott's moving story on NHL prospect Mackie Samoskovich, a native of Newport Connecticut, and a Sandy Hook alumnus. The guys look at some of the top eligible American born players, with the draft 10 days out.
Custance and Gentille give a stick tap to Pekka Rinne who retired this morning after spending his entire NHL career with the Nashville Predators, and the guys wonder if the New York Islanders should pursue Vladimir Tarasenko and that the Sabres shouldn't be in a hurry to deal Jack Eichel, before the NHL expansion draft.
