Thoughts on controversial challenges, Seth Jones' informal trade request, and more

Blackhawks Breakaway

On the latest episode of the Blackhawks Breakaway Podcast, Charlie Roumeliotis and Pat Boyle break down Chicago’s recent games against Columbus and Toronto coming out of the 4 Nations break. They discuss the recent controversial challenges, including Connor Bedard’s overturned goal in Columbus and the unsuccessful offside challenge against Toronto — explaining why, by definition, it was the right call. They also dive into Lukas Reichel’s benching and analyze Seth Jones’ public trade request, exploring potential landing spots and his chances of being moved before the March 7 deadline. Finally, they talk about Alex Ovechkin's quest for Wayne Gretzky's goals record and pay tribute to Frank Pellico, whose legendary 33-year run as the Blackhawks’ organist came to an end on Sunday.
