    Jun 26 2025
    Dan and Shawn are joined by Mike Morreale (15:53) to talk about the NHL Draft, he
    predicts, as many have, that 17-year-old defenseman Matthew Schaefer from Erie of the Ontario Hockey League will go to the New York Islanders with the No. 1 pick. But Morreale goes way beyond just the prediction, backing it up with facts and information about Schaefer, including how he got to be the consensus No. 1 despite playing only 17 games this season. Morreale also discusses many of the other top prospects, including Michael Misa of Saginaw in the Ontario Hockey League, James Hagens of Boston College, Porter Martone of Brampton in the OHL, and Anton Frondell and Victor Eklund of Djurgarden in Sweden. The guys start the episode breaking down the widely reported four-year extension of the Collective Bargaining Agreement and how the NHL and NHL Players' Association got to this point with such a strong working relationship. They close the episode discussing some of the moves we've already seen, including the Utah Mammoth acquiring forward JJ Peterka from the Buffalo Sabres for defenseman Michael Kesselring and forward Josh Doan, and forward Evander Kane being traded from the Edmonton Oilers to the Vancouver Canucks.

    Dan and Shawn react to the Florida Panthers repeating as Stanley Cup Champions by closing out the Edmonton Oilers in six games, including a detailed statistical breakdown to explain how the series did not play out nearly as tightly as it appeared.

The guys continue by heaping praise on Matthew Tkachuk for another stellar postseason run while battling through injury. Dan and Shawn wrap the episode with a look ahead for Edmonton, and whether or not the Oilers need to make a change in goal after benching Stuart Skinner mid-series.
