In a very special episode, Jacob & TJ are joined by Josh & Luke from Evolving-Wild to discuss:

- The origins and goals of Wins and Goals Above Replacement models in hockey, and their own model
- What their model says about notable Panthers players, including Aaron Ekblad, Roberto Luongo, James Reimer, Denis Malgin, Jayce Hawryluk, Mackenzie Weegar, Keith Yandle and more
- Using WAR to evaluate and attempt to predict past and future performance from players on the Panthers
