Nick Cotsonika joins; Trade Deadline rumors, Buyers/Sellers, Scoring race, USA Hockey leadership

NHL @TheRink

Dan and Shawn were joined by NHL.com columnist Nick Cotsonika to talk about the Trade Deadline plans for the Detroit Red Wings, the New York Rangers' goaltending situation and if that's a brewing controversy, the Edmonton Oilers and how they respond to their first loss in 17 games, the scoring race between Nathan MacKinnon and Nikita Kucherov, who is the Hart Trophy favorite and the 2025 Winter Classic at Wrigley Field. The 2024 NHL Trade Deadline is one month away, so there was plenty of deadline chatter, rumors and trade proposals. In addition, Rosen and Roarke discussed which among the three coaching positions that are currently filled by interim coaches is the best job: the Ottawa Senators, St. Louis Blues or Los Angeles Kings. Also part of the conversation was USA Hockey tabbing Minnesota Wild general manager Bill Guerin to be the Team USA general manager at the upcoming 4 Nations Face-Off and the 2026 Winter Olympics and who he could potentially choose as the coach for those teams.
