Blues' GM on Their Prospect Pipeline, Showtime in Detroit, Matt Rempe's Fighting, Devils' Trade Plans and More

Ryan Kennedy and Michael Traikos look around the NHL in The Hockey News Pre-Game Show:

- It's Showtime in Detroit. Coming off major hip surgery, there was concern that Patrick Kane's best days were behind him. But could his efforts get the Red Wings back in the playoffs?

- Does New York Rangers forward Matt Rempe need to avenge his loss to Mathieu Olivier when the Rangers play the Blue Jackets on Wednesday?

- St. Louis Blues GM Doug Armstrong sits down for a 1-on-1 interview with Ryan Kennedy for some Future Watch talk and how the Blues have one of the strongest prospect pipelines in hockey.

- New Jersey Devils site editor Kristy Flannery joins Ryan and Michael to talk about coach Lindy Ruff's future, whether Jacob Markstrom could be the answer in net and how Simon Nemec and Luke Hughes have been progressing.

- It's box-breaking time. Michael and Ryan are joined by resident card collector Jared Ostroff to break open some of Upper Deck's latest offerings.

- If Elias Pettersson doesn't re-sign in Vancouver, where could he be headed? 

- What are the chances that Connor McDavid will finish the season with 100-plus assists?

And much more.
