Marek: “Last week, the NHL world was shocked when Ryan McDonough left Nashville and returned to Tampa. And we all said, 'Okay, who's going? Who will make room for this, and maybe the Stamkos deal, and more? Who is Elliott looking up to?
Friedman: “So one word we wondered about at the end, one of our last Pods. I can't remember if it was the last one or two, it was Tanner Jennot. And I got a few calls from people saying it was going to be a viewing. Because his salary is $2.6, Tampa can use this space. It really didn't happen as well as everyone had hoped for between him and Nyazi.
NHL Rumors: The Lightning will talk to Steven Stamkos and Victor Hedman this summer
But there are many groups out there who see something. And they think he's more of a Nashville player than a Tampa Bay player.
So I think it depends on what Tampa is going to want to do, they're going to have to consider it and I think there are teams out there that are interested.
Marek: “You know, I always say this as a rule, as unsupported by anything. I'm being honest when I say I wonder, I mean I wonder, if there would be a fit for Tanner Jeannot and the Calgary Flames. That one always came out
me.”
Friedman: “Why do you choose them? Is there a specific reason?”
Marek: “Just knowing how this player plays and that type of play is important. Certainly not just about the Battle of Alberta but Alberta, itself.
It's a small group. Craig Conway has a lot of young players coming into the NHL, and I'm sure he'd like to provide a safety blanket, although he already has one when he's Martin Pospisil in a way. and is he making a name for himself?
I just wondered, if a guy like Tanner Jeannot could be the kind of policeman who hits the Calgary Flames song. That always made sense to me.”
Friedman: “I've never, never heard that, but it makes a lot of sense.”
Marek: “Eh, it seemed like it was equal. Like here's a team with a lot of young players coming into their own. Whether it's Connor Zary or Matthew Coronado, etc. And you can't help but think that maybe Craig Conway is looking for a safety blanket there. next to these players.
Although, Martin Pospisil is certainly making a name for himself in that regard. As always, I can't help but think what Tanner's Jeannot could be there considering how many, how many young players will start to populate this Flames program that always seems to be a good fit for me. And…”
Friedman: “I haven't thought about it but it's a good idea.”
Marek: “Even based on that, just based on that it sounds like it's going to be a good fit.”
