Episode Description

Ben Ennis and Sho Alli open the second hour of Tuesday morning alongside Gord Stellick, former Maple Leafs GM and friend of the show! They break down the Leafs’ effort against the Wild, whether fatigue is still a valid excuse, and if it’s time to see what Dennis Hildeby can offer. Gord shares his thoughts on Auston Matthews’ resurgence, the impact of his new linemates, and some realistic expectations moving forward, along with how much the Olympic break could help the team. The discussion also touches on Matthew Knies’ play and the tight Eastern Conference trade market. After the break (24:22), Ben and Sho debate William Nylander’s decision to play for Sweden amid injury concerns. Later, the guys touch on Jimmy Butler’s ACL injury and the implications for tonight's Raptors vs. Warriors matchup. The hour wraps up with a look at the chaos in New York surrounding the Knicks and debate whether the Eastern Conference landscape should push the Raps to go all-in this season.
