Corey’s NHL Pipeline Rankings, the Jesperi Kotkaniemi offer sheet, Team Canada’s U18 and U20 camp, listener questions, and more

First, Max and Corey give their thoughts on the Jesperi Kotkaniemi offer sheet situation and discuss Kotkaniemi’s likely projection as a second-line center, the salary cap implications for the Carolina Hurricanes, if the Montreal Canadiens should match the offer or not, and more.

Then, Corey gives his thoughts on Team Canada’s combined U18 and U20 prospects camp, including the good reviews for Mason McTavish and Olen Zellweger, Shane Wright’s so-so performance, how impactful the 2020 draft for the Ottawa Senators could be, and more.

Next, the guys deep dive into Corey’s NHL Pipeline Rankings, reviewing the top six teams on his list, and talk about what goes into the rankings process, some of biggest up-or-down swings in this year’s list compared to last year’s, and much more.

Finally, to close things out, the guys answer listener questions about how the Hurricane’s potential addition of Jesperi Kotkaniemi would impact Corey’s Pipeline Rankings, why Marco Rossi was ranked lower than Matthew Boldy and Calen Addison on the Minnesota Wild’s list, Michael Rasmessen’s slotting above Filip Zadina on the Red Wings chart, how many prospects will realistically challenge for the No. 2 overall selection in next year’s draft, which college squad outside of Michigan will be the most interesting to follow next season, and how Corey compares North American leagues to the Russian leagues.
