6/25/20261 hr 15 min
With the 2026 NHL Draft just around the corner, the NHL trade market is in overdrive, and Jeff Marek is joined by Greg Wyshynski for another edition of MVSW to break down everything that's happened across the league during one of the busiest weeks of the offseason. From blockbuster trades and sign-and-trades to teams positioning themselves for Friday night's first round, Jeff and Greg examine the biggest deals, the winners and losers so far, which clubs are still looking to make a splash, and what to expect over the next 48 hours as the draft officially gets underway. They also discuss the latest league-wide rumors, front office strategies, and how the NHL landscape continues to shift with every move.
Later in the show, Aaron Portzline joins Jeff to dive into the latest surrounding Columbus Blue Jackets star Zach Werenski, including where things stand ahead of an expected post-draft meeting between the two sides. They also discuss former Blue Jackets GM Jarmo Kekäläinen and the aggressive direction he's taking with the Buffalo Sabres, plus revisit Mike Babcock's brief and controversial tenure in Columbus, what went wrong, and how it continues to shape conversations around his NHL return.

[upbeat music] Okay, uh, live from our downtown studios here, uh, in downtown Toronto. This is The Sheet for this Thursday, January the 25th, or June rather. I don't even know what day it is.
