Episode 0307: All Star Weekend; Horvat to Isles; Capitals ”D” Issues; Potential B’s Pickups; Bucci Tweet; Marchand HOF?; Bettman & TV Ratings and More!

With the all star weekend in the books, we turn our attention to the trade deadline.  The Isles have kicked us off, acquiring Bo Horvat from the Canucks.  But will they keep him?  The Washington Capitals appear to have some defense issues, as none of them are signed beyond this season with the exception of John Carlson.  We then delve further into a discussion of players (wingers) that the Bruins could pick up on medium contracts.  Buccigross tweeted out that the NHL needs 100 Marchands and not goals above expected, which leads to a frank discussion of his possibly getting into the hall of fame based on a Peter Tenkrat tweet.  The main portion of the show revolves around Gary Bettman and his 30 years as commissioner of the NHL as well as the TV ratings, which are in decline.  A slightly longer episode to be sure, but well worth the listen, so let us know what you think and Enjoy the Show!
