Hailey, Sean and their special guest Michael Russo comment on Shane Pinto's four-year, $30 million contract extension with the Ottawa Senators this morning and if he should be considered for Team USA at the Winter Olympics. They discuss the Canada-USA Women's Rivalry Series, which Mike covered with Hailey, specifically Abbey Murphy's gritty play and 2026 projected first overall pick Caroline Harvey's impact. Russo provides the 411 on the Minnesota Wild, who have gotten off to a slow start, and if they have interest in trading for Jordan Kyrou. Plus, Hailey, Sean and Mike pay tribute to colleague and Hockey Hall of Fame member Larry Brooks, who passed away at the age of 75 this morning.
