Aaron Dell handed a 3-game suspension, Keith Yandle breaks ironman record, and the potential temporary home for the Arizona Coyotes

To kick off this Thursday's episode, Ian and Sean discuss Buffalo Sabres' Aaron Dell being handed a 3-game suspension, the rarity of goalie suspensions, and if Ron Hextall’s attack on Chris Chelios is the worst goalie-on-skater crime in NHL history. Also, Taylor Hall's hit on Nathan MacKinnon, and discussing the biggest collision between NHL superstars. Then Keith Yandle just became the NHL's new ironman record holder, is it possible for Phil Kessel to pass him?

In "Granger Things", Jesse Granger joins the show to first discuss the news of the Arizona Coyotes potentially calling Arizona State University their temporary home, then looks at four teams' strength of schedule for the first half of the season vs. the second half through a betting lens.

The guys answer two voicemail questions; one on if Marc-André Fleury gets traded to the Capitals, and another asking for best "bang for the buck" NHL contracts, and to wrap up, a look back with "This Week in Hockey History".
