Rob, Jesse and Russo take a look at the NHL's first big trade of the season and the New York Islanders chances at extending newly acquired Bo Horvat.

Former NHLer Jeff Chychrun, studio analyst for the Panthers on Bally Sports Florida, joins Rob and Mike from Miami to discuss how the Panthers are preparing for All-Star weekend, including the much anticipated alumni game that he is taking part in.
