あらすじ・解説
On his weekly Saturday Conversations podcast, Post-Gazette sports columnist Jason Mackey welcomes for Penguins forward and current broadcaster Colby Armstrong to talk NHL trade deadlines past and present.
What does Colby remember from being traded to the Atlanta Thrashers in a 2008 blockbuster that brought Marian Hossa and Pascal Dupuis back to Pittsburgh? What were Sidney Crosby's feelings about the deal, given his close relationship with Colby? What are some funny stories he has from that period in Penguins history, when Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang and Marc-Andre Fleury were leading a resurgence? And what makes a trade so awkward for a player?
Our duo tackles those questions as well as the path that led Colby into broadcasting; his relationship with Crosby as a source; the wild trade rumors swirling around Crosby and the Colorado Avalanche; and an array of current Penguins topics. What does GM Kyle Dubas need to do to get the franchise back on track? And how much can a slew of upcoming NHL draft picks help the franchise?
