Matt Marchese and guest host Gord Stellick open today's countdown to the NHL trade deadline with thoughts on some of the early deals today. They begin by breaking down John Carlson's move to Anaheim, along with the Sabres bolstering their blue line with Logan Stanley and Luke Schenn. Paul Bissonnette (12:16), former NHLer and Spittin' Chiclets host, joins the conversation to swap some stories, before news breaks that Corey Perry is heading back to Tampa Bay! Biz also takes some time to chat about how the Maple Leafs should move forward and the Wild acquiring Bobby Brink and Nick Foligno. Kevin Bieksa (29:43), former NHLer and Sportsnet analyst, stops by to discuss the state of the Ducks after adding Carlson, the outlook for Vancouver's rebuild, and Perry's return to the Lightning. Later, Mike Futa (50:06) pays the boys a visit and shares his take on Jordan Eberle's extension, Jordan Binnington's potential suitors, and what's ahead in Toronto. Finally, Sportsnet's Luke Gazdic (01:20:09) weighs in on the team's facing the most pressure, the wide open Eastern Conference, and more!
