Miscellaneous
In this week’s episode, Brutes & James discuss the plethora of trade rumours around the NHL, including the seemingly foregone conclusion of Duncan Keith to the Oilers, as well as the Canucks putting Nate Schmidt on the block, Oliver Ekman-Larsson’s value, and Vladimir Tarasenko’s trade demand. In addition, the guys discuss the uproar over Ron MacLean’s interview with Gary Bettman and his decision not to discuss the Blackhawks sexual assault allegations, and where that investigation could be headed. The guys also discuss the Lightning winning the Stanley Cup and why it was so fun, and what could be next for the Montreal Canadiens heading into next year, as well as the NHL’s buyout window opening, and a (nearly) final update on the Down Goes Brown preseason contest that the guys filled out.
