In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Jeff and Elliotte revisit a fantastic night in Chicago that saw Chris Chelios' number 7 raised to the rafters and Patrick Kane's return to the United Center with the Detroit Red Wings. Elliotte talks about how the Red Wings look to have finally turned a corner and are poised to break their playoff drought (14:12). The fellas then shift focus to Sidney Crosby following his 4-point night against the Flyers (17:28) and wonder if Jake Guentzel could land in Detroit (25:07)? Next, Jeff and Elliotte discuss Matt Rempe's hectic week following his NHL debut (27:59) and ask if Danny Briere will change course in Philly now that Jamie Drysdale is out with an injury (34:25). Elliotte ponders if the Leafs would be better off rolling with three goaltenders (37:18) and look out for the Dallas Stars to be aggressive in the d-man trade market (39:56). Jeff wonders whether Anthony Mantha has played himself into potential trade to a contender (44:28) and if the Seattle Kraken could potentially move Adam Larsson (59:32). Finally, Elliotte expands on his report that teams are calling the Canucks gauging interest in a potential Elias Pettersson trade (1:01:40). The fellas answer your questions in the Montana's Thought Line (1:05:48) and wrap the podcast by previewing NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman's visit to Winnipeg this week (1:32:12).
