  • From 5 stars to 3 stars

    Dan left, negative Bik came in. The show is spiraling. Used to be one of my favorites to listen to. Can’t hardly finish an episode anymore. Bik needs to stop talking so much. All he does is whine and complain and bash everyone. It gets old. We know the season sucks. But yeah go ahead and keep pounding that into our heads. Won’t be listening for a while. Hopefully you find a good replacement for Dan…he’s missed.

  • Refuse to listen to segments featuring MAGAt fascist Saravelli. He is a shameless Trump fan and defended Cash Patel, deserves ZERO hits of Canadian radio!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Ferrari: Lots of Variance in This Year's Draft
Q: What's your take on the Canucks at three? Is there a spot in the top 10 you'd be uncomfortable trading past?
There's a real strategic decision here; moving up to grab a specific target like Gavin McKenna or another top player could be worth it, but trading past five or six would require careful consideration of the risk and the players available later.
Ferrari: Lots of Variance in This Year's Draft
Q: Are you at the point now where you have your final list finalized or are you still putting those pieces together?
It's mostly finished with a few last touches. If a team is really out on a guy or differs significantly from consensus, they might take an extra look, but for the most part the list is done and ready to discuss.
Ferrari: Lots of Variance in This Year's Draft
Q: Tony, thanks for making some time for us today. How are you doing, man?
Doing well, thanks. Closer to the NHL draft, which means a lot of work, but excited to share how the draft landscape is shaping up and why there's so much variance this year.
Is this Carolina’s Year?
Q: What do you make of what we've seen so far and do you have any inclination of who's going to take this one home?
Landon Ferraro suggests that while his head leans Vegas, his gut says Carolina's year, highlighting Carolina's resilience and the shift in momentum as a defining factor of the series.
In The Booth: Pettersson to Pittsburgh?
Q: What stood out from Canada's World Cup performance for you?
James Sharman emphasized the historic nature of Canada reaching the knockout rounds and highlighted breakout performances from young players, while noting that finishing and goal-scoring will be crucial next time.
