Leafs Off-Season Priorities + Chuck Fletcher Joins the Show

Matt Marchese kicks things off with Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News discussing what Jeff Skinner can bring to an NHL team, what to expect from the Sabres this off-season, Buffalo's plans with the 11th overall pick, if Martin Nečas could be a good fit, and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen's next contract. Next up, Sportsnet's Luke Fox weighs in on the Maple Leafs' pending UFA’s, free agent targets, and how they will approach next season between the pipes (16:55). Later on, former NHL GM Chuck Fletcher joins the program to reflects upon his time with the Panthers at the beginning of their franchise’s history and how Bill Zito built the organization into a Stanley Cup champion (44:56). Chuck and Matt also tee up what we should expect during the draft, free agency, and the buyout window with the salary cap increasing, before taking us behind the scenes to what it's like on the draft floor.
