From Kempe to Chaos

About this episode

In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman open with Adrian Kempe’s extension talks before shifting to the growing conversation around Tage Thompson and why Buffalo has no interest in moving him (7:37). The guys look at a tough week of injuries across the league, including Sam Honzek and Jack Hughes’ freak incident (11:04). They discuss the NHL and NHLPA’s upcoming visit to Milan to monitor Olympic rink construction (20:49). They explore whether Andrew Brunette is feeling pressure in Nashville (26:29), Toronto’s five-game slide and how different the Blackhawks and Connor Bedard look under Jeff Blashill (30:23), and Hockey Canada’s hesitation about taking Schaefer, Bedard, and Celebrini to Milan (38:47). The Leafs’ search for roster-for-roster trades comes up (46:45), as does Vancouver winning the David Kämpf sweepstakes while Montreal hunts for a stop-gap centre (56:31). Elliotte also breaks down Mark Scheifele’s misconduct after a hot mic caught his comments (1:04:41), plus the chaos between the Rangers and Red Wings following an empty-net goal after time expired (1:08:05). The Final Thought spotlights the Dallas Stars’ Hall of Fame Weekend (1:13:25).
