NHL Young Guns Get Paid + Drew Mindell (Jets Preview) - September 15th, 2026 - Hour 1

In Hour 1, Salas and Gage kick off the show with the young crop of NHLers getting paid early in their careers. With big-money, long-term deals being handed out after relatively few games, is the NHL shifting toward paying for potential rather than proven production? Plus, the Oilers may be getting a bargain with Connor McDavid's contract — and with that comes plenty of pressure. Then, Drew Mindell from Illegal Curve Hockey joins the program to preview the Winnipeg Jets. Where will the offence come from beyond the big three? Is the Connor Hellebuyck contract situation becoming a distraction? What can the Jets expect from prospect Viggo Björck? And can Winnipeg get back into the playoff picture? Plus, Noticias from around the sports world.
