In the Keeping Karlsson Fantasy Hockey Podcast’s 31 Beats series, Elan and Brian are on a league-wide odyssey to explore the fantasy present and future landscapes of each of the NHL’s 31 teams, gathering info by interviewing the people who know them best: beat writers!

Today, The Athletic’s Fluto Shinzawa tells us how much longer the Bruins can ride their top line, what happens to David Pastrnak when his linemates get older, what it’ll take to make secondary scoring actually happen in Boston, how the Bruins’ blueline outlook is kind of complicated right now, and whether Tuukka Rask really could retire after one more season (and who could be the next to take on his franchise goalie mantle). Fluto also tells us what he’s dreaming of fir his first post-pandemic dream meal.

Keeping Karlsson Short Shifts – The Wilkes-Jarry Penguins

Elizabeth and Lewis are back to take listeners through a host of power play changes that are giving managers the opportunity to get exposure to great players off the waiver wire, including Philly, Jersey, and Tampa talk. They also cover Jarry’s AHL demotion, Cooley’s ascension to the top-line and powerplay, and injuries to Tavares and Hintz. The duo wrap up with some hot and cold streak deep dives, including discussion of the Red Wings crazy powerplay success in the last ten games, whether Erik Gustafsson is rosterable or an overperforming illusion, Fantilli’s continued success, Merilainen as Hamburglar 2.0, and whether Schenn’s success and Neighbours’ lack thereof are likely to continue.
