Bruins

Would trading for Ekman-Larsson be a good idea for the Bruins? Can he produce with a contender?
Gavin Lee
6:45
I don't think it is a good move for them, no
He would produce, sure. But I doubt you get any excess value out of that contract
And it probably kills you near the end

People are talking about the leafs making a big out of nowhere move.  Who do you see that being?
Gavin Lee
6:46
I have no idea how they will play it, everything coming out of that team right now is surprising me. Letting Hyman walk, potentially trading Rielly. Not sure what's happening in Toronto
Al Val

I would take Shea Theodore from Vegas and his 5.2 cap hit per year
Gavin Lee
6:47
Okay Alex Tuch isn't the best value, you got me.

Buffalo moves 1st overall pick for a year of Jones, trades eichel for a package of young players for a "reload". Makes it to first round and gets swept.  Ownership declare it a massive win
Gavin Lee

Kevyn? Is that you?

Vegas 2 goalies system not looking so hot now….switch possible after season or ride it for another year.
Gavin Lee
6:48
I think they probably just ride it out. It's Fleury's last year, he's such a big part of the brand there.
Corey B

Why all the secrecy with Toews mystery illness?
Gavin Lee
6:49
It's something personal that he doesn't want to share. I'm not exactly sure why people need more than that.

Is Mittelstadt still a piece of the future in Buffalo
Gavin Lee
6:50
I actually think he is. There were some real building block moments for him this season, even if things overall went poorly
I can see a future with Mittelstadt as a supporting cast member to Cozens, Dahlin and Power
Corey B

Who starts the most games in net for the Hawks next season?
Gavin Lee
6:51
I would not be surprised for it to be a name that is not currently on the team
But, Lankinen has to be the odds-on favorite at this point right?
6:52
In my head, I wonder if someone like a Petr Mrazek would work though.
Inconsistent, but there is enough depth to overcome that if necessary

Thanks for the insightful answers. Who is your team?
Al Val
6:54
Your favorite team Gavin?
Gavin Lee
6:54
Alright folks I'm going to end it there, but wanted to say again. If you don't know who my favorite team is from the way I write, I'm doing my job correctly.
With that said, five years at PHR just passed, and it really has taken me from a fan of a team to a fan of the game.
6:55
I watch more hockey than I would like to admit
And every day I find new players around the league to cheer for
6:56
I actually would suggest it to everyone, turn on a game that doesn't include your favorite team. Go to a rink in a city that you don't live in. The game is great no matter what.
Thanks for all the questions. See you next week!
