THE NHL IS ABOUT TO GET UGLY | Hellebuyck, Waivers, & Ottawa's Leadership Crisis

The NHL is about to get ugly. Training camp is winding down, NHL teams are getting closer to their 23-man rosters, and some extremely difficult decisions are coming. On this episode of Mid-Ice Crisis, Josh breaks down the players who could find themselves on the waiver wire — including some former high draft picks and young NHLers who could be claimed if their teams aren't careful. We also look at the unresolved Connor Hellebuyck/Winnipeg Jets saga and discuss what happens when a player wants out but the team isn't willing to accept the offers coming back. Finally, we look at the Ottawa Senators' changing identity after former captain Brady Tkachuk's departure. Josh also examines who could emerge as Ottawa's next captain and discusses why the best player isn't necessarily the best leader. And, as always, Josh wants to hear from you: Who should be the next captain of the Ottawa Senators? And what do you think happens with Connor Hellebuyck and the Winnipeg Jets?
