Are Prospects Going to Seek More Control Over Their NHL Destiny? Plus Amanda Kessel's New Gig and More

Locked On NHL - Daily Podcast On The National Hockey League

Are prospects in the NHL beginning to seek more control over their own destiny? With Rutger McGroarty demanding a trade from the Winnipeg Jets and getting dealt to the Pittsburgh Penguins before he even played a game, is this becoming a trend? And are college prospects taking advantage of the four-year window they get to ask for trades from the team that drafted them? What would this mean for the NHL and for college hockey?

Erica L. Ayala joins us for our bi-weekly Women's Hockey Spotlight to discuss the latest on Amanda Kessel as she takes on a new and historic role.

And New York Islanders forward Anthony Duclair cut his hair ahead of training camp. But does Isles GM Lou Lamoriello's policy on short hair and facial hair hurt the team and is it fair to players like Duclair?

All this and more on today's Locked On NHL Podcast with Rachel Donner and Gil Martin.
