Jason and Frank are back with a fresh edition of the podcast, in which they put a bow on their trade deadline coverage by grading what all the sellers did last Friday. Frank kicked things off with a spicy take and gave which trade he thinks could be this year’s version of the infamous Filip Forsberg for Martin Erat trade.

From there, they talked about how they felt teams like the Penguins, Bruins, and Sharks did when it came to selling off assets. They also hit on the New Jersey Devils, who became ‘soft buyers’ with the injury to Jack Hughes. The guys talked about whether or not they should have sold off.

The conversation about the Sharks eventually turned into a Connor Bedard vs Macklin Celebrini comparison as Gregor talked about the overuse of the ‘generational’ title and Frank talked about Bedard’s path to having a MacKinnon-esque career.

They also talked about the Seattle Kraken and Philadelphia Flyers, who both sold off some assets on Friday, before quickly talking about two teams out West that stood still during the deadline period but still find themselves right in the middle of the playoff race.

Tyler Yaremchuk then popped in for a new edition of Fill in the Blank, brought to you by Bet365. He asked the guys about one playoff matchup that they would want to lock in, the Flames playoff chances, and potential summer shake-ups.
