Host Matthew Zator gets together with Columbus Blue Jackets writers Mark Scheig and Nicholas Arnold to preview the 2022-23 season. They discuss everything from the new additions of Johnny Gaudreau and Erik Gudbranson to the offence now led by the dual threat of Johnny Hockey and Patrik Laine. They also talk about what Cole Sillinger has in store for an encore and whether Kent Johnson can emerge as a Calder Trophy candidate after a strong World Juniors. Finally, they touch on David Jiricek's chances of making the team and Elvis Merzlikins' chances of becoming a Vezina Trophy caliber goaltender.
They also discuss some of the big storylines going into the season and identify some potential breakout stars, players that need to bounce back, X-factors, trade bait, and much more.
