Auston Matthews Contract was 5 years at an AAV\u00a0of 11.634. Twitter didn&#8217;t seem to like it, but did the guys? Alex had some mixed feelings on the deal. However, Chace was on board with it.<\/p>\n<p>Following the Auston Matthews contract, they took a look at some smaller trades. <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/b\/boylebr01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brian Boyle<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/m\/mcleoco01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cody McLeod<\/a><\/strong>. Alex and Chace\u00a0were left scratching their heads a bit with this one. Wondering just what the Preds were thinking?<\/p>\n<p>Next, they took a look at the insane Western Playoff picture and why every team is still in it. They ask themselves if it will actually be a seller&#8217;s market this year?

Chace is very perplexed on some teams rumoured interest and plans for him. See what he can&#8217;t quite wrap his head around about the deal. Tune in for all of this and more, with the MnM Hockey Podcast!<\/p>\n<p><em>Who are Alex and Chace? Alex and Chace are both from Waterloo region in Ontario Canada.
