Bonus Bandwidth: Hellebuyck Trade and a Yankees Autopsy
Was the Hellebuyck trade the best anyone could do, and did it cost New Jersey a shot at Quinn Hughes? Plus, a Yankees post-mortem on Bonus Bandwidth.
This Bonus Bandwidth was supposed to be a Yankees post-mortem, and it still is—but first, Eric and Chip react to Connor Hellebuyck finally getting traded to New Jersey for Dawson Mercer, Nico Daws, and more. They debate whether Winnipeg could have done any better, why the deal slams the door on Quinn Hughes joining his brothers, and what it means for the Rangers’ goalie search with Joonas Korpisalo sidelined. Then it’s on to the Bronx: a satisfying win over the Red Sox, a lifeless sweep at the hands of the Rays, Brian Cashman’s new contract, Aaron Boone’s return, and Hal Steinbrenner’s Groundhog Day press conference. Plus, a Yankees free-agent wish list, a tale of Newark hospitality, and why the New York team closest to a title might be the Buffalo Bills. Give it a listen!
