I don't think he's going, but minds can change
Not Zach Bogosian
7:37
Where does Zach Bogosian go? What kind of package are we looking at, if much at all?
Gavin Lee
7:37
You're not getting anything for Zach Bogosian
You might have to eat half his contract just to get him off the team.
If anyone was offering anything of value, they would have already moved him. They've been trying to trade a defensemen since before the season started

Heard kravtsov is coming back. Will they give him a look? Wonder what was promised if anything
Gavin Lee
7:38
He's going back to Hartford.
7:39
He was benched and demoted in the KHL too (which sometimes happens with players who are going back to North America, and was not necessarily because of his play) so they brought him back.
I doubt he'll see New York for a while.

Over/under 3 1/2 years till the Wings make the playoffs?
Gavin Lee
7:40
Hmm, under. I'll say in 2021-22.
They're going to get a star this year and a star next year

What's the purpose of the Kyle Wood and Oliwer Laski trade?  Each had less than 20 games to show what they can do.
Gavin Lee
7:40
Fresh start, different fits
Will
7:41
I know he hasn't done much in his career, but are the Islanders ruining Josh Ho-Sang's career by not playing or trading him?
Gavin Lee
7:42
It's not necessarily all on the Islanders, but him sitting at home is definitely not helping his career.
At this point, it's better I think to just throw out all the expectations you had for Ho-Sang.
Hockey guy

So you are Detroit a d win the lottery. Lafreniere winger or byfield the center?
Gavin Lee
7:42
Lafreniere and it's not that close.
But Byfield is going to be a HELL of a consolation prize
7:43
Which is why the Red Wings have an excellent change of landing a franchise-changer this year.
(and Yzerman knows it)
Devils fan

Speaking of all the good goalies in the league ... Both starting and backup ... Is Blackwood the answer for New Jersey?  If not who can we get to replace him?
Gavin Lee
7:43
I think Blackwood can play in this league, and perhaps even be a starter on a better team.
There's no reason to replace him exactly. Develop him.
Devils fan
7:44
Could this Hall trade (if it really is a bidding war) completely push our rebuild forward in the right direction much faster?
Gavin Lee
7:44
It'll help, but I still don't think it's going to be the four elite-asset kind of thing. I don't believe Hall will sign an extension wherever he goes.
Rob
7:44
If Hall is traded to Colorado, what’s the most likely package headed the other way to New Jersey?
Gavin Lee
7:45
Package built around Timmins, I think is where I would start.
I don't think it gets to the point where they can land Byram, but maybe I'm wrong.
Hockey guy
7:46
The 2022 draft looks interesting. Savoie and wright.
Gavin Lee
7:46
Lots of names still to come into the spotlight. Long way away
Derek
7:46
Who's the most underrated player in hockey right now?  Id put my money on Jakub Vrana ... Do you see a challenger?
Gavin Lee
7:48
Jonathan Huberdeau has 93 points in his last 82 games.
Do people know that?
There are lots of players that are underrated, Vrana is one of them. He's excellent.
7:49
Speaking of 2020 prospects--it looks like Jamie Drysdale has made the Canadian WJC team.
Fun.
Fred

How would you rate the Rangers “rebuild” so far?Any chance that they sneak into the playoffs?
Gavin Lee
7:50
I think they are ultimately going to come up short, but I've loved pretty much everything about their rebuild--other than the Panarin signing.
