Show Notes
Elliotte Friedman put JJ Peterka into the thick of the rumor mill last week, noting that the Sabres had ever so slightly altered their stance on the RFA winger. We break down the latest on Peterka (9:55) and talk through what it would mean to move him this offseason. We open with a conversation on this year's Conn Smythe trophy, and make our pick in the midst of game six and the Stanley Cup Final wrapping up (0:35). In addition, Rasmus Dahlin's selection to Sweden's first six players for the 2026 Olympics and Peterka's snub from the Germany roster (5:20). We also revisit the conversation around Bowen Byram, offering some potential packages to go along with the landing spots we feel are most likely for the defenseman (39:30).
