Finally, Wysh weighed in on the ongoing storyline surrounding Nikita Kucherov, analyzing the potential trade landing spots and the factors driving his desire for a fresh start.

Jamie McLennan kicked off hour two with an in-depth breakdown of the Edmonton Oilers. "Noodles" analyzed Edmonton's shootout loss in New Jersey, pinpointing the key factors that led to the outcome while praising the team's encouraging trend in net. He evaluated Jake Walman's return to the lineup and what his role looks like moving forward, before reflecting on Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' historic milestone after breaking the franchise record for all-time games played. McLennan also weighed in on whether Leon Draisaitl should remain a primary shootout option. To cap off his segment, Noodles reacted to the wild, late-game collapse on Tuesday night that saw Winnipeg mount a stunning comeback against Montreal.
