Bedard, Celebrini, Carlsson: the NHL’s new superstars have arrived

All you have to do is look at the NHL’s list of leading point scorers to know the future of the league is here. Alongside the Nathan MacKinnon’s, the Jack Eichel’s, and the Connor McDavid’s are a trio of young stars named Connor Bedard, Macklin Celebrini, and Leo Carlsson, who are not only putting up big point totals to start the year, but also putting their skills on display on a nightly basis. On today’s episode, the guys discuss the excitement surrounding this injection of new hockey talent, as well as what it means for the future of the Blackhawks, Sharks, and Ducks. Plus, The Athletic’s Jeremy Rutherford joins the show to talk about the quickly developing disaster in St. Louis for the Blues and The Athletic’s Peter Baugh helps close things out with a conversation about the state of the Metro division.
