Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne get MSG analyst and CEO of Clear Sight Analytics Steve Valiquette's thoughts (4:34) on the goalie swap between the Edmonton Oilers and Pittsburgh Penguins, whether either Tristan Jarry or Stuart Skinner can perform better with their new teams and why it was the right time to trade goaltenders.

They discuss what to expect from the leaders after being called out by Craig Berube on Saturday, how Auston Matthews will respond, Joseph Woll's return to the lineup, and more.

Then, The Athletic's Michael Russo (32:50) shares his thoughts on the Minnesota Wild side of the deal, if there's any discourse on the return for Quinn, if the Wild now have higher expectations for this year, and if GM Bill Guerin still has enough assets to go big-game hunting on the trade market.
