How could Ryan Johansen not be the All-Star pick for the Preds? Outside of Rinne, he's been the most valuable player with the team's injury woes.
Gavin Lee
6:25
So here's the thing. All-Star selections are almost never just about the most deserving
The league and teams take into account marketing, availability, health, rivalries, personality, etc etc etc
And also have the constraints of putting someone from every team
6:26
Trying to understand it is just foolish.

Hi Gavin.  Any news on the Flyers?  I can’t imagine they are not trying to move some players
Gavin Lee
6:26
The Flyers front office was leaking buckets just after Fletcher took over, but it seems to have tightened up recently.
6:27
They will be a big player near the deadline, don't worry.
Chris
6:27
Flyers news?
Gavin Lee
6:27
See above. All quiet, but they'll be involved.

Do you think ottawa resigns  duchenne and stone
Gavin Lee
6:28
I genuinely wonder if Stone is being truthful when he says he wants to stay, or whether he's trying his darnedest just to not be the latest sideshow in Ottawa.
I'm also not sure if the Senators are really going to go out of their way to pay to keep either one.
6:29
They'll make an offer, sure.
But when it comes down to it, I think you'll see both wearing new sweaters.
Teal

How much would Stone and Duchene cost on the open market?
Gavin Lee
6:29
Those two could potentially set the market, especially given the uncertainty around Panarin.
6:31
I think there is a chance that Ottawa could get more for Stone than they did for Karlsson, if it comes with an extension for the acquiring team.
He's an absolutely elite winger, that no one really talks about.
Chris
6:32
Will the flyers unload some of their core players like simmonds and vorachek before the deadline?
Gavin Lee
6:32
I'm not sure if they'll be able to get out from under Voracek's contract, but there's no way they go past the deadline with Simmonds still a pending UFA.
Either they get together on a deal (and quickly) or they'll have to move him.

Can the isles win the cup
Gavin Lee
6:33
Anyone that gets into the tournament can win.
They wouldn't be my pick though.
Joe
6:34
When are seattle getting a name and logo. What do you think they will be called
Gavin Lee
6:34
There's no rush
It likely won't happen for some time, and I have zero idea what they'll end up on.
I think it was Bruckheimer that said it wouldn't be Kraken.
Adam
6:36
So... Chris Stewart signing in the UK was a bit of a shock!
Gavin Lee
6:36
So was him signing in the Senior league before that!
I'm really not sure what's going on there.
Teal
6:38
Whats up with the DoPS??? There’s been some real questionable suspensions/non suspensions lately..
Gavin Lee
6:38
It's a really tough job that no one will every be happy with.
Ever.
6:39
The tough part about releasing videos to explain why they suspend someone, is that there is no corresponding video explaining why they don't.
6:40
It's almost as if they need to release a video about every incident, explaining why or why not to suspend.
But that's never going to happen.

What kind of move do the Jets need to do to put them
