As the New Jersey Devils continue to struggle, the idea that Taylor Hall could be moving out the door gains steam by the day. Ryan and Luke Fox discuss potential destinations for the 2018 NHL MVP. Luke also offers his take on the Maple Leafs under new coach Sheldon Keefe ahead of a big road swing through St. Louis and Western Canada.

To close things out, Sean Shapiro joins the show to explain how the Dallas Stars went from looking dead in the water just three weeks into the season to playing like the Stanley Cup contender many people pegged them to be.

Akim Aliu is best known for two things: accusing Bill Peters of using racial epithets and being at the centre of an OHL hazing controversy nearly 15 years ago. Ryan and Justin Bourne talk to Gare Joyce, who’s known Aliu since the latter was a teenager. He shares some pertinent details of Aliu’s life and offers his impressions of the man learned over the course of their years-long relationship.
