Power Talk ~ Episode 370

The 2025-26 NHL season has officially come to an end, with the Carolina Hurricanes lifting the Stanley Cup. Tanner opens the show by examining what made Carolina successful and what lessons their roster construction could offer the Chicago Blackhawks as they continue their rebuild.

Next, the guys dive into Scott Powers' latest pre-draft thoughts and expand on several of the topics he raised. What will the Blackhawks do with the 4th overall pick? Could Ivar Stenberg still be available when Chicago is on the clock, and if so, how would that impact the organization's long-term roster construction? If Stenberg is off the board, does Malhotra become a realistic option, or has Chase Reid always been the preferred target?

To wrap up Hawks Talk, the guys reflect on the tragic passing of former Blackhawk Kyle Calder and discuss what he meant to fans during some of the franchise's most difficult years.

The show closes with a look around the NHL, breaking down the recent trades between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Philadelphia Flyers, as well as the deal involving the Colorado Avalanche and Nashville Predators.
