Empty Netters Podcast

Week 4 of the NHL season was a whirlwind! The Avalanche continue to struggle and fall in the rankings of the Central. Meanwhile, the Maples Leafs are on a heater and look like they might be a major power in the east. Despite the noise around Quinn Hughes, The Minnesota Wild continue to look dominant and seek to go all in this season for a Stanley Cup. Connor Hellebuyck is officially a member of the New Jersey Devils, and this might mean another HUGE move is going to be in the works for Sunny and the Devils.

Chapters:<...

BREAKING NEWS! The Devils pull off a massive blockbuster trade acquiring Connor Hellebuyck from the Winnipeg Jets. The Devils sent Dawson Mercer, Nico Daws, Nick Bjugstad, prospect Alexander Command, a 2029 2nd round pick, and a 2027 7th round pick to Winnipeg. This trade is MASSIVE for the Devils and makes them a top team in the east. What does this mean for the Detroit Red Wings and Dylan Larkin? Perhaps even bigger, does this mean Quinn Hughes is now 100% coming to New Jersey as well?
