Connor McDavid Signs, Bandwagon Teams and more!
The guys are back as they explore more of what Carl should do with his bandwagon team problem. What should he be looking for in a bandwagon team? What about cheering for a bandwagon team in the same division as the Avalanche? The listeners have their suggestions and Joel gives his thoughts on who he should cheer for.

– Alex Galchenyuk, Zach Hyman and more re-signed with their teams as the off-season signings continute to trickle in
Lastly, Carl and Joel talk about the current state of sports media as they look back on how we got here, where we’ll go and if they’re okay with the direction that sports media is going.
