Episode Details

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning start the second hour alongside Gord Stellick, former Maple Leafs general manager and friend of the show! Gord shares his thoughts on the Leafs’ win over the Blackhawks last night, including their third period comeback, Auston Matthews’ emotional response to the fans, the state of the power play after finally scoring, and how much the team can rely on Joseph Woll down the stretch. Gord also discusses "Holy Mackinaw Night" honoring of Joe Bowen and reflects on some of Joe’s great calls throughout the years. Ben and Brent then chat about the idea that Craig Berube’s criticism may have motivated Auston Matthews and whether that kind of approach is needed consistently. After the break (30:50), the guys look at how the Knicks celebrated winning the NBA Cup and debate whether it was fair or foul. The guys also react to Jim Bowden’s comments about team allegiance, discuss whether his take is correct or offensive to fans, explore whether people who work in sports truly understand fandom, and consider whether it’s possible to truly switch teams.
