It’s December and that means the holidays are just around the corner. Jason started the show with a rant about how some parents handled a certain Christmas-time tradition for their kids.

They did eventually get into some big stories from around the league starting in the Pacific Division where seemingly ever team with the exception of Vegas is having a bit of a goaltending problem. Cal Petersen has already been sent to the AHL, should the Oilers follow go down that path to try and fix Jack Campbell? Jacob Markstrom has been wildly inconsistent for the Flames as well and the Canucks could be without Thatcher Demko for a while. There are a lot of teams out West with goaltending problems. Frank and Jason gave some insight into that.

From there they got into the Alex Formenton discussion. Why did he stay unsigned? Frank provided some context on that and talked about where he could go now since he’s ineligible for the remainder of the 2022-23 NHL season.

Tyler Yaremchuk also popped in for a new edition of Buy or Sell delivered by DoorDash and Pointsbet Canada.
