Over the course of the NHL’s Olympic Break, The Elmonters have some great exclusive interviews lined up.

Our Inside The Playoff Bubble series takes you behind the scenes of what life was like in the Toronto and Edmonton bubbles during the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs, in which the Islanders fell to the Tampa Lightning in six games.

Up next is former Islanders head coach Barry Trotz, whom I had the chance to speak with when the Nashville Predators came to town right before the break.

Enjoy the interview!
