Vasilevskiy out for Lightning, Bedard makes pre-season debut, Plus the Flames have a new Captain!

Andrei Vasilevskiy has back surgery and is out for at least two months for the Tampa Bay Lightning. We discuss options in net for the Bolts. Plus, how did Connor Bedard do in his pre-season debut? And what does it mean for the Blackhawks fan base? Then we dig into the goings on for the Calgary Flames with a new contract and a C for Mikael Baklund, an injury to Jacob Pellitier, and the team at a crossroads. Finally we look ahead to Kraft Hockeyville in Cape Breton Island, the changing uses for pre-season rosters in week two and key prospects to watch around the NHL in these weekend games. All this and more on today's Locked On NHL Podcast with Rachel Donner (Locked on Flyers) and Gil Martin (Locked on Islanders).
