Connor Bedard exceeds expectations at World Juniors, Canucks go off the rails, and looking back at a ten-player trade between the Maple Leafs and Flames

Ian and Sean discuss the World Juniors tournament, and with Connor Bedard excelling, could we see a wild race to the bottom for the #1 pick in the draft? Also, as the Canucks go off the rails, if they could be a late entry into the Bedard sweepstakes. Then, as Chris Chelios and Brian Leetch go back to back in The Athletic's NHL99, who would you take at their peak? To wrap up, which team could be last to get an outdoor game in the mailbag, and a painful jersey memory for DGB is brought to light in "This Week in Hockey History".
