Today, Lance and Joe decided to send valentines out to all of you in the form of a normal length episode of the show. You're welcome! This week, the guys discuss Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen seizing the day and highlighting how doing goalie development on the right timeline CAN work! They also get into: Kyle Okposo on the first line with Tage Thompson and Jeff Skinner and why it continues to be a thing. Casey Mittelstadt's future and if it's even a good idea to consider trading him. How the Sabres will approach the trade deadline and what sorts of deals should they be looking at as well as how to improve the roster in the current situation given all the prospects on the way and the needs they have to address.  Thanks for listening and thanks for letting us know you're enjoying the pod.
