ASK R&D SPECIAL: HHOF Class of ’23, Sens/Debrincat, NHL Playoff Salary Cap, & More!

In this special edition of the pod, the guys dig into the #AskRayandDregsAnything mailbag, answering YOUR questions!!  The guys lead things off with the Hockey Hall of Fame inductees, including Ray’s former teammate Pierre Turgeon. Ray proposes a 10-year time-limit on receiving the honour, and discusses the tough process of being selected. Reports of prominent Calgary Flames players seeking new teams, are also discussed. Ray & Dregs answer questions on the Senators expected return in an Alex Debrincat trade, a 'Buffalonian' asks what his team should do, and Ray explains why the Sabres should acquire an experienced defenceman. Dregs discusses the NHL salary cap rules and the debate around teams circumventing the cap in the playoffs.  A listener has the guys looking back at their days before hockey; Did you know as a teen Ray built his NHL-physique with literal BRICKS? Dregs recounts an absolutely EPIC story of quitting a college summer job, and early beginnings as a farm-hand. Plus, Ray discusses the wild battles in late-80’s/early 90’s hockey, and the drastic changes in hockey sticks during his career.  Kris Abbott takes the episode off, and the guys discuss the EARLY Stanley Cup favourites, and the wagers already available on Betano.ca. Dregs fights a losing battle with the printer, and Ray has his money on a Golden Knights repeat, but hedges with the New Jersey Devils young-core taking a championship step.     Follow us here!
