Episode notes

Is it too early to pick next season’s Stanley Cup winner? The surprise playoff team? The Calder winner?

Plus, the guys discuss Scott’s just-released top 100 drafted NHL prospects ranking, sneak peak his top 20 goalie prospects, and wonder: did Gavin McKenna really get $700,000 to play at Penn State?
