  • One of the good ones

    Great discussions, banter, jokes and even the occasional argument about everything Leafs and NHL related.

  • Rogers propaganda

    The show has become unlistenable. Both Kyper and Justin sound like corporate shills.

  • Nick weak on being Candid.

    I think Sammy is the only one of the 3 of you willing to be critical of Leafs Senior Management/Ownership on the total fiasco of the Pelley GM search. I think Nick is particularly pathetic for being afraid to criticize the Domi involvement. It’s sad that a Sportsnet media show will not be critical of ownership. I have to go to Overdrive for the real takes.

Hurricanes Pull Even + Oilers' Coach-Search Chaos Continues
Q: Where's the driving force behind getting Mike Babcock behind an Edmonton Oilers bench?
The driving force appears to be a mix of organizational desperation to upgrade and the belief that Babcock's tactical prowess could unlock the team, despite concerns about his past. Gregor suggests the Oilers are weighing all options and may be attracted by past success and familiarity, but the risk is potentially significant given long-standing concerns about his conduct.
