    What should the Anaheim Ducks do over the offseason? Addressing the direction of the Angels

    This week, the guys address what the Anaheim Ducks should do over the offseason as reports indicate John Carlson is likely leaving, Radko Gudas could be on his way out, and Jacob Trouba might be too expensive to retain. Do they go out and trade for a right wing defeseman? Or should they rely on youth? The guys also discuss other potential moves, including whether Mason McTavish gets traded this offseason. On the baseball side of things, they discuss how the Angels have already fallen out of playoff contention, just three months into the season, and who they should move at the MLB Trade Deadline, and who they should keep. But even more importantly, will they even trade anybody, or will they keep putting up with the roster they have? The episode ends with the guys briefly talking about the latest updates with the MLB and the Players Association, as a looming lockout is starting to look inevitable in the near future.

The hockey side of the episode ends with the guys discussing Jackson Lacombe's rise to stardom this season and becoming one of the best defenseman in the game, crediting Ducks general manager Pat Verbeek for his construction of the roster this year, and ends with a potential preview of who the Ducks will face in the Western Conference semi-finals between the Vegas Golden Knights and the Utah Mammoth. The guys briefly discuss baseball and go over the recent struggles of the Los Angeles Angels. Where do their struggles fall? Is it new manager Kurt Suzuki? The bullpen?
