Growing pains. Every NHL team and every young NHL player has them. Gavin McKenna was benched by coach Jim Hiller on Thursday night, playing a season-low 6:36 and then Hiller fell on the sword. Is he covering for McKenna? In Vancouver, Zeev Buium has also struggled of late after signing a massive contract extension over the summer. Meanwhile, in Chicago, Artyom Levshunov is finally blossoming in a big way - making us re-think the 2024 NHL Draft? Frank Seravalli and John Buccigross discuss.

Bucci is also back, as always, with his usual news and notes from around the NHL with Franks 'n Beans.
