Happy Tuesday! Hunter starts the show off with a new series: Hunter as Mock GM! Hunter goes through a couple of moves that he would make for this offseason if he were the GM as he's going to continue that for the rest of this week and into next week. What's the first order of business? What goaltender does he really want to go after? He answers both of those questions before pivoting to Evgeni Malkin's season in review. Hunter starts out by feeling relieved that he was able to play the full season before discussing how Geno proved a lot of people wrong. He discusses how his offense is still elite even though his defensive metrics have gone down (that's expected). He also analyzes how Geno isn't just a PP specialist as other people have said he is before discussing what expectations should be for him in 2023-24. Finally, he recaps a crazy Monday of the Stanley Cup Playoffs and what to expect on Tuesday and Wednesday for the games.
