With the All Star Break in full swing and the event completed, we await the Beanpot and return of the NHL.  Today we discuss the comments from Rocky Wirtz and Gary Bettman surrounding the Blackhawks' situation and it's link to Brad Aldrich.  We break down the All Star Event and the Skills Competition.  Anaheim has hired itself a new GM...Pat Verbeek.  Being the most surprising team this season, we touch on the future and what Verbeek will be dealing with, and we compare and contrast the Ducks with the Red Wings, Verbeek's previous employer.  The KHL is going straight to their playoffs after the Olympic break, which could leave many players looking for somewhere else to play for the rest of the season.  Eric Staal has been named captain of the Canadian Olympic Team.  Could the Bruins acquire both J.T. Miller and John Klinberg?  Finally, the Arizona Coyotes are turning to Arizona State University to play their home games for the next 3 seasons. Action packed, the episode provides much food for thought.  Give us a listen and Enjoy the Show!
