The Leafs are actually good, the Jets and Wings are quite bad, Jim Benning reveals his plans, the Flames first half and exposing Troy Brouwer, Taylor Hall goes back to Edmonton, the Adidas jersey takeover, the NHL’s point system, backup goalies, Justin Schultz 2.0 and more in this week’s Nation Roundup brought to you by Violent Gentlemen.
