Would NHL teams and players benefit from shorter-term max contracts?
About this episode
Max and Laz are back together on a Monday to discuss the potential for shorter-term max contracts in the next CBA, brought up during last week’s NHL general managers meeting, how Connor Bedard can’t score right now, how Martin Necas can’t not score right now, and the guys try to answer the age old question: what is goaltender interference? Plus, The Athletic’s NHL insider Chris Johnston weighs-in on the max contract idea, the coaching carousel spinning faster in Chicago, Boston, Pittsburgh, and Detroit, and more.
