Episode Notes
Sat and Bik break down Thatcher Demko being ruled out for the rest of the season as he undergoes hip surgery. With Brock Boeser out, they dig into how his absence opens the door for multiple young forwards — from Jonathan Lekkerimäki being recalled and whether he can stick in the lineup, to whether this also creates an opportunity for Linus Karlsson to take on a bigger role.
