Dimitri Filipovic is joined by Steve Werier to discuss some of the biggest dynamics that'll influence the way NHL teams operate this offseason. We get into the lessons to take from the success the Hurricanes have had, the impact that the cap going up will have on talent retention moving forward, long-term extensions and trade protection that comes with it, and the pre-draft preparation process.
