After the ‘zoo’ that was trade season, Dregs has a couple unwelcome visitors in his yard. Ray welcomes two new additions to the Ferraro family in remarkable fashion as the guys kick-off another episode of the podcast.

In Headlines, the latest NHL news and storylines are covered. Tony DeAngelo’s not-so-subtle spear on Corey Perry, and the subsequent suspension has the guys seeking more clarity on how many games should be assessed for foul play. What is wrong in Tampa? Ray analyzes the Lightning’s struggles and if the ‘dynasty’ is over. 

The surging Minnesota Wild are clicking at the right time, but now face possible adversity with a Kaprizov injury. Connor Hellebuyck’s recent struggles for the Winnipeg Jets could make-or-break the playoffs as the trailing Flames start to get great goaltending from Jacob Markstrom. A razor-thin margin amongst Western Conference playoff teams, and the Edmonton Oilers chances of going from wild-card to first place are examined.

Kris Abbott is off jet-setting for Betano.ca, the guys discuss the favourites in the Vezina and Norris Trophy races. While Ullmark and Karlsson seem to have the awards locked-up, is there still a chance for the dark-horses to make a move?

Every week, the guys check the mailbag and answer YOUR questions. In a bonus edition of Ask Ray & Dregs Anything, Ray discusses playing ‘spoiler’ as a non-playoff team, and dry hockey gloves and changes in equipment from Ray’s playing days to now. The guys talk podcasting and their favourite or least favourite parts of the pod, and a question on if theres a benefit between shooting right-or-left-handed as a hockey player.
