What should a trade return be for the Penguins' Jake Guentzel? Can Travis Green save the Devils' season? All that and more, including the hype around Connor Bedard rookie cards. On today's show: - Can Travis Green save the New Jersey Devils season? Or is changing the coach the precursor to a bigger move, such as adding a goalie? That seems more likely, but with Jacob Markstrom and Juuse Saros potentially off the board, the goalie market is shrinking fast. - Penguins site editor Nick Horwat on what the return for Jake Guentzel should look like and the immense challenge that GM Kyle Dubas faces. As well, we evaluate whether the Penguins should have buyer's remorse after trading for Erik Karlsson last summer. - According to a report on The Hockey News' Women's Hockey site, the NHL is using the PWHL to test out several new rules. They include allowing the top-seeded team to pick its playoff opponent. If the NHL were to adopt this, who would some of the divisional leaders pick? In a year with so much parity, the answer isn't as easy as you might assume. - Upper Deck associate brand manager, hockey, Ed Spiker talks about why card collectors are clamoring over the Connor Bedard rookie card and whether the upcoming Matt Rempe card should feature the NY Rangers enforcer sporting a black eye. - What's the over-under on deadline day trades? - Do we envision a team taking a chance on Evgeny Kuznetsov? - And who is the next coach on the hot seat now that Lindy Ruff is out in New Jersey?
