Line ‘em Up, Knock ‘em Down
Sure, the playoff run is going strong but what about that Draft Lottery? Deb and Erika give a brief primer on the Draft Lottery and discuss this year’s shocking results. They also note the first ripple in the pond for the expansion draft (aka “Hockey Hunger Games) with the release of the exempt players list.
As a hockey podcast we are, of course, contractually obligated to discuss the Washington Capitals/Pittsburgh Penguin Concussiongate controversy. We might mention a few other playoff series as well.
Finally, in “What the Puck” we explain lines, line matching and the strategy of managing a shift.
Where do you weigh in on the controversy? Who do you think will go first in the Draft? Hit us up on Twitter or email and let us know!
