claude giroux

With the Sens opting to keep quiet during the draft and free agency, we decided now was the perfect time to bring in our friends Morgan (@defensemint) and Victoria (@fakehockeyteam) from Flyers twitter for an episode that spends more time off the rails than on them. Try to follow along as the four of us get sidetracked numerous times while attempting to discuss Matvei Michkov's refusal to eat a Philly Cheesesteak, Sens legend Oliver Bonk, that video where the Sens drafted random strangers into becoming Sens fans, and the recent news in women's hockey.

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Producer Sammy sort through the biggest names on the move around the NHL before free agency officially opens at noon! The guys discuss Johnny Gaudreau hitting the free market, the speculation linking Jack Campbell to Edmonton, Claude Giroux's fit with Ottawa, and Evgeni Malkin and Evander Kane both staying put (00:59). Later on, Daily Faceoff's Mike McKenna weighs in on the goalie carousel around the league, Matt Murray's technique and points of improvement, and sorts through the backup netminders still available (31:01). To wrap up, the guys focus in on the Senators to ask if Ottawa's off-season push could re-ignite the Battle of Ontario (41:50).
