In this edition of 32 Thoughts, Kyle Bukauskas and Elliotte Friedman open with the growing concern around several struggling Canadian teams, especially in Toronto, where the pressure is creeping into the room and the trade options are limited. The guys discuss Montreal signing Alexandre Texier (17:30), Vancouver’s loss to Calgary, and why the Canucks are poised to become rumour central as they gauge the market on their players (19:46). They dig into the Flames’ dilemma between avoiding a rebuild and handling players who may want out, plus reaction to Don Maloney’s recent comments (23:54). The fellas touch on Edmonton’s hard-earned road win in Florida (37:26), Minnesota’s sudden defensive surge with back-to-back shutouts (47:12), and a shoutout to Ottawa (47:41). Elliotte shares a note about Pittsburgh’s goalies being potentially available (49:37), checks in on Andrei Svechnikov’s trade availability (52:54), and provides an update on the NHL/NHLPA’s Milan arena visit (58:35). The Final Thought focuses on Mikko Rantanen’s one-game suspension for his hit on Matt Coronato (1:04:05).
