Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Hour 3 - Thursday 06/18/26
Q: What changes do you expect Jesse Marsh to implement for the Canada vs Qatar lineup?
The panel anticipates tactical changes to counter a likely deep-lying Qatar defense, with Kyle Lahren up front and Ali Ahmed providing pace and nuance on the wings to stretch Qatar.
Hour 2 - Danny Maciocia joins as the Alouettes get off to a 2-0 start + Pierre Lebrun on the Leafs potential busy summer
Q: What went well for the Alouettes offensively in their home opener?
The offense managed multiple explosive plays, including a flea flicker that connected for a long touchdown, and overall scoring efficiency helped secure the 37-30 victory.
Hour 4 - Tuesday 06/16/26
Q: Any thoughts in your own mind who would be a good fit to coach the Leafs?
Pierre Maguire offered that David Carl would be a strong candidate, while noting Marty St. Louis in Montreal and other names could be considered, depending on language and management fit.
Hour 4 - Tuesday 06/16/26
Q: Do you have any inkling who might be the next coach of Vegas?
Pierre Maguire suggested the in-house candidates like Johnny Stevens or Ryan Craig, with some talk of David Carl or Craig Barube as possible outside options, but indicated Vegas will likely stay in-house.
Hour 3 - Darren Raddysh signs long term deal with Leafs + Stephen Brunt joins as Canada wins in dominant fashion
Q: How does the Leafs' eight-year deal for Raddysh fit into their long-term playoff plans?
The hosts express skepticism about sustaining elite performance from a defenseman who is 30 years old, but also acknowledge the potential upside of a late-blooming, high-impact player who could anchor the defense during the early years of the contract.
