Gould and Pike are joined by Daily Faceoff’s Steven Ellis for a full breakdown of the upcoming 2026 NHL Draft and all the chaos surrounding it. The guys open the conversation reacting to the NHL announcing that the Vegas Golden Knights will forfeit a second-round pick in the 2026 NHL Draft following violations of the league’s playoff media regulations, while head coach John Tortorella was also fined $100,000. From there the conversation shifts into the fallout from the NHL Draft Lottery, including the Toronto Maple Leafs somehow landing the first overall pick. The guys dive into the top prospects in the class, the unpredictability of the top five, standout defencemen, late first-round sleepers and the rising buzz around the Ruck twins in a loaded draft conversation with one of hockey’s top prospect analysts.
