A week after free agency has started and two weeks into the "offseason" have left us with a rejiggered landscape as to who the best teams are in the NHL. We at the Two Man Forecheck are still figuring it out and this week we talk about the defenseman carousel that has begun with the move of Troy Stetcher to Detroit. In order to make space for their new acquisition, the Golden Knights have sent Nate Schmidt to Vancouver for a 3rd round pick in 2022. All three teams filling voids on their teams. We also talk about Matt Grzelcyk re-signing with the Bruins. Also on the table are many other d-men who could have been acquired by the Boston franchise. Sami Vatanen, Karl Alzner and even Vince Dunn are potential targets. We break down the work of the L.A. Kings, a franchise that, we believe, recognizes their situation and where they are going. We discuss the issue facing the Penguins, bringing in Cody Ceci after parting ways with Jack Johnson and Justin Schultz. We answer a mailbag question regarding the signing of Grzelcyk and close with a parting shot from Torey Krug to Brad Marchand. A fun show to be sure, so give us a listen, send us your questions and Enjoy the Show!
