The NHL offseason moves that aged the best and worst

First, the guys are joined by The Athletic’s own Murat Ates to talk about Connor Hellebuyck undergoing “a minor Arthroscopic knee procedure” that will keep him out of the Winnipeg Jets lineup for four to six weeks, as well as how Jonathan Toews’s season is going so far, and which of Mark Scheifele, Connor Bedard, or Tom Wilson could end up on Team Canada at the Olympics. Plus, Mikko Rantanen’s automatic one-game suspension for consecutive game misconduct penalties and the guys take a look back at some of the offseason moves that could have gone either way and determine which have aged the best and the worst as Thanksgiving quickly approaches.
