Jets video/audio:
NHL Network: Kyle Connor ranked 42nd best player in Top 50. Really feels like if he was playing in a bigger market he’d be higher on the list.

On the first show of the season we discussed the status of Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck including recent comments from Elliotte Freidman on 32 Thoughts Podcast/Pierre LeBrun in The Athletic.

Whether Cole Perfetti or Gabe Vilardi will grab hold of the 2C spot. The logjam on the backend. We were joined by Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press and Ryan S Clark of ESPN.
