Around the NHL with Elliotte Friedman: Contracts and Expansion

Matt Marchese and Mike Futa welcome back Elliotte Friedman, Sportsnet NHL insider and host of 32 Thoughts for his regular segment on The FAN Hockey Show and discuss how far the league will go into expanding further with the potential of adding a team in either Houston or Austin, Texas, Dylan Larkin and Detroit Red Wings addressing his trade request and removing the captaincy from him, if there's a preference as to when and how both Winnipeg Jets and Connor Hellebuyck would like to make a trade, if either Drake Batherson or Cutter Gauthier close to a contract extension, and remembers the late Barry Melrose.
