A Key Change in Music City

In this episode of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman react to Barry Trotz stepping down in Nashville while remaining with the organization through the end of the season, and examine what comes next for the Predators’ front office. They dig into Robert Thomas trade-market chatter (29:00), Florida’s ability to maneuver its way into a potential Artemi Panarin deal, (30:30) teams checking in on Nazem Kadri (39:20), and why Ottawa could be poised to make a push if their goaltending holds up (44:50). The guys also discuss Buffalo’s reluctance to weaken its roster (46:40), Connor McDavid’s Players’ Tribune piece (49:40), the growing Matvei Michkov situation in Philadelphia (60:00), and the Stadium Series success in Tampa Bay, along with ideas to rethink the Winter Classic schedule (1:05:50). The Final Thought looks ahead as the fellas prepare to head to Milan for the Olympics (1:13:40).

Kyle and Elliotte answer crowd questions in the Thoughtline (1:20:54).

Today we highlight Southern Ontario musician Julianna Riolino and her song On A Bluebird's Wing. Check out her music here.
