Episode 0198: Kraken Can Save the NHL Season, Boychuk Retires, Top RFAs Available, NWHL Season, 2020 NHL Power Rankings, Tim Horton's In Trouble and More!

With Thanksgiving in the books, we all push closer to the end of the year and the hopeful beginning of a new NHL season.  Here are the stories we are working on...We touch briefly on the tradition that is Black Friday matinee hockey, started here in Boston and then "appropriated" by the NHL.  From here we discuss how the Seattle Kraken ownership can help out the NHL by paying part of their expansion fee, which is due before they start playing in the 2020-21 season, now.  Johnny Boychuk has called it a career and all hockey fans are better for him being part of the game.  We wish him nothing but success in his future endeavors.  There are some RFAs still unsigned and we break down a top ten list headlined by Pierre-Luc DuBois.  The NWHL has scheduled their entire season around a two week bubble at the end of January.  They will have multiple games between teams, a playoff and a champion!  With the start of the season on the horizon, we break down a power ranking list of all 31 NHL teams.  The link is below.  Let us know how you feel about this list.  Finally, Tim Horton's, a coffee chain in Canada, could be in trouble with their hockey card promotion.  Someone is claiming that the chain is cheating its customers out of the hard to find cards.  That link is below as well.  Give us a listen, share your thoughts and opinions, and Enjoy the Show
