Well, we recorded an episode and then Mathieu Darche made the Ondrej Palat/Maxim Tsplakov trade within an hour. So up top, you get quick snapshot perspective from Desmond on the Palat trade and what it may mean for the team this season and next.
After that, stick around as Beale joins as we look at the Isles vibes and plays have come under a bit of shaky ground following a mediocre road trip that stabilized with a win against the Flyers. We attempt to unpack the way that Roy and Darche are navigating handling personnel decisions and winning culture standards, while attempting to define what defines this team's window and who the fixtures are.
