One in a Million

One in a million, and we mean that two ways.First, CellyCentral just crossed ONE MILLION combined views across TikTok, YouTube and Instagram. When Season 1 wrapped in June, we were sitting around 483K. Three months into Season 2, we've more than doubled it. BG takes a moment to thank everyone who watched, shared, commented and helped build this thing from the ground up.Second, the NHL just had its own deadline day, except for contracts. At midnight, the new CBA kicked in and eight-year deals disappeared, so teams spent 48 hours throwing money around like it was last call. BG breaks down six guys who cashed in and hands out grades on every deal: Cutter Gauthier: 6 years, $81M, with $69.5M in signing bonuses Jordan Staal: the playoff MVP and Cup-winning captain gets one more year Alex Newhook: 4 years in Montreal, but is he really a top-six guy? Luke Evangelista: did New Jersey overpay twice? Justin Sourdif: 8 years off a hot half-season, the boldest bet of the rush Arber Xhekaj: the Sheriff's prove-it dealThen it's the stars who want out. Connor Hellebuyck, a three-time Vezina winner, won't report to Jets camp as his trade standoff heats up. And Dylan Larkin, stripped of Detroit's captaincy after his trade request, suddenly has an upper-body injury as camp opens. We dig into both players' careers, their play styles, and where they could land.Plus: Connor Bedard becomes the youngest captain in the NHL, and a look at PTO season, including why Nick Blankenburg is the tryout most likely to earn a contract.Presented by Buttery Roller Co.
