The guys talk about what Dustin Wolf’s next contract could look like and whether Matt Coronato is a candidate for a long-term deal.

Plus, Frank shares his thoughts on the Stars’ dominance, the Oilers’ outlook heading into Game 5, and the tight battle between Winnipeg and St. Louis.(26:55) Pat and Aaron Vickers take a hard look at Morgan Frost — maybe the toughest RFA for Calgary to figure out this summer.

With Frost one year from UFA eligibility and turning 26 soon, the guys debate whether a four-year, $4 million AAV contract is a realistic target.
