For the second hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Scrappy Will Petersen and Stoke sit in for the morning. They hear what Super Joe had to say about Cale Makar’s upcoming new contract and the imminent changes coming to the Avalanche. They hear the succinct answer of why Jared Bednar is still the head coach of the Avalanche before they hear about Bo’s status for minicamp from Sean Payton. They get breaking news about Jonathan Cooper and it’s gone from bad to worse. Will and Stoke bring our 9News Broncos Insider on the show to get some clarity on the news and to get some info ahead of minicamp.  

For the fourth and final hour of the day on Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Will and Stoke take on The Drive’s toughest trivia for The Fan’s weekly Trivia Challenge. Can they go 4-0? Will and Stoke listen to Joe Sakic talk about Cale Makar’s future with the Avalanche; he makes it sound like it’s a done deal, but Will is worried about another Mikko Rantanen situation. Will and Stoke cap off the week with an update on the developing Jonathan Cooper story.  

Boomer, Pinder and Rhett react to Joe Sakic's emphatic comments about Cale Makar's future in Colorado after the Avalanche legend made it crystal clear that the franchise has no intention of letting their superstar defenseman go anywhere. Sakic stated that he fully expects Makar to finish his career with the Avalanche and revealed that discussions with his agent have already taken place regarding a long-term extension. The guys discuss what Makar means to the organization, why locking him up is the easiest decision Colorado will ever make, and whether there is any realistic scenario where one of the NHL's best players would ever consider leaving.Video Link: https://youtu.be/7DMdQ8BhcJc#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #stanleycupfinal #coloradoavalanche CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

On Friday's episode of Hot Takes, Eric Goodman and Troy Renck get into the news of the Denver Broncos rewarding head coach Sean Payton with a 5-year contract through the 2030 season. What is the best thing Payton has brought to Denver? Was the timing of the new contract surprising? Plus, the Colorado Avalanche held their end-of-season news conference yesterday, where Josh Kroenke and Joe Sakic spoke. They discussed bringing Jared Bednar back as head coach, wanting Cale Makar to be an Av for life and how the team got swept by Vegas. Eric and Troy react to it all.

Hour 1 of The Drive kicks off with Phil and Will live from Todd Creek Golf Course. The guys react to the breaking news of the day in Sean Payton and the Broncos agreeing to a new 5-year contract extension. Will Payton get a pay raise in his new contract after all the success he's had in Denver the past few seasons? Does this rule out a future in which Davis Webb will be the head coach of the Broncos? Phil and Will continue to discuss Sean Payton's contract extension, and we hear from Sean on how great ownership has been here in Denver, and still being excited about football. We pivot to the Avalanche as Joe Sakic spoke today at the team's end-of-the-season press conference. We hear Sakic's thoughts on Jared Bednar returning for next season, even in the final year of his contract. Will Bednar get an extension before the next season starts? Will the Avs and Cale Makar agree on a contract extension this offseason? 

In hour 3 of The Drive, Phil and Will react to Josh Kroenke explaining why the Avalanche and Nuggets are not in the same situation and why he is not treating their offseasons the same. Why is Josh much more involved with the Nuggets and not as much with the Avs? Could the Avalanche make a splashy trade this offseason that shakes up the core of the team? Would the Avs be able to recoup any assets in return for Val Nichuskin or Ross Colton? We react to the news of the day in Sean Payton and the Broncos agreeing to a new 5-year contract extension. We hear from Sean on how great ownership has been here in Denver, and wanting to coach until he stops being excited about football.  We pivot to the Avalanche as Joe Sakic spoke today at the team's end-of-the-season press conference. We hear Sakic's thoughts on Cale Makar's looming extension and the injuries the team suffered in the playoffs.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner is back on the What I Bet Podcast, part of the Straight Outta Vegas AM Podcast Network at Pregame.com, covering every major betting angle for Tuesday, June 2nd, beginning with Game 1 of the 2026 Stanley Cup Finals and running through a full 14-game Major League Baseball slate. Before diving in, Griffin reminds listeners that promo code GRIFFIN50 at Pregame.com gets you $50 off his All Access package through the All-Star break, dropping the price from $249 to $199 and locking in every pick through mid-July. The deadline is July 8th. Starting with the NHL, Griffin lays out his case for the Vegas Golden Knights as a plus-money play in Raleigh. Carolina enters as heavy home favorites after losing just one game across three playoff rounds, but that loss came in Game 1 of the Eastern Final after an extended layoff, a detail Griffin finds relevant as Vegas arrives with its own rest-and-rust dynamic following a sweep of the Colorado Avalanche. Cale Makar's injury limited Colorado at key moments, which gives the Golden Knights some credit for how they navigated that series. Griffin likes Vegas on the money line at plus-132, the series price at plus-127, and is targeting the under six rather than under five and a half to avoid the empty-netter problem that has burned under bettors throughout these playoffs. The MLB breakdown covers every game on the board. Griffin passes on the Padres and Phillies despite a soft Nola start because the overall offensive environment makes it a coin flip. He moves past Detroit and Tampa Bay after finding Jack Flaherty unbackable at any number in his current form and the Rays too expensive for his framework. He finds a clear lean in Washington, where the Nationals are priced at a shockingly cheap minus-111 against Miami's bullpen game, and C.J. Abrams, James Wood, and the rest of a hot-hitting club make that number feel like a gift. Baltimore and Boston shape up as a borderline under at Fenway, and Griffin acknowledges the park's history of eating unders alive before moving on. Cam Schlittler and the Yankees are simply too dominant to fade at any price. Noah Cameron gets some love from Griffin but the Royals bullpen situation, highlighted by a rough week from closer Lucas Erceg, makes Kansas City impossible to trust even if the starter delivers. The Braves look cheap at minus-122 against Toronto, and Bryce Elder's 2026 track record in Atlanta earns Griffin's lean in that direction. Kyle Harrison's continued dominance in Milwaukee, now at 18 consecutive scoreless innings, makes the former top prospect one of the more fascinating stories on the June 2nd card, though Griffin passes on the game itself. Davis Martin and the White Sox visiting Minnesota provides little grip for Griffin, who moves quickly. In St. Louis, he finds one of the night's more interesting numbers at plus-100 on the Cardinals with Dustin May facing Nathan Eovaldi, noting the Rangers' home run problems and Jordan Walker's hot stretch as reasons to look at the Cardinals price. Gage Jump's early big-league exposure at Wrigley Field against Jameson Taillon in a wind-in environment is a situation Griffin monitors but does not commit to. Mike Burrows and Houston get a lean at minus-110 against Pittsburgh. Grayson Rodriguez and the Angels as minus-155 against the Rockies is a price Griffin finds heavy given Rodriguez's injury history, though Colorado plus-140 is a number he admits he will be tracking closely before first pitch. And Michael Soroka's plus-107 price against the Dodgers in Arizona becomes the final talking point, with Griffin identifying his buy price at around plus-100 and expressing genuine affinity for the Diamondbacks in that spot. The official What I Bet Best Bet to close the show is the Washington Nationals minus-112, a number Griffin calls simply too cheap against a Miami team running a bullpen game. The show is three and one over its last four Best Bets.

In hour 2 of The Drive, Zach and Phil pivot off the Avalanche and to the Broncos as their OTA's are underway. After looking into the numbers, does Courtland Sutton have a case to be the number one receiver with the Broncos, even after the Jaylen Waddle trade? Have we underrated Sutton because of the changing coaches and quarterbacks in Denver and the up-and-down offenses during his tenure here? Who should be the number one option for the Broncos in 2026? Could the Broncos move on from Sutton next offseason to save cap space in 2027? Today's "Three Count" includes Chris MacFarland leaving the Avalanche to be the President of Hockey in Nashville, Cale Makar coming in 2nd for the Norris Trophy, previewing Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Golden Knights and Hurricanes tonight, and reacting to the College Football Playoff schedule for 2026-2027. We react to Mike Klis saying there could be a position battle at left guard between Ben Powers and recent draft pick Kage Casey.

After a stunning end to the Colorado Avalanche season in the Western Conference Final against the Vegas Golden Knights , Jesse Montano and Meghan Angley are joined in-studio by Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette as the crew attempts to unpack the jarring and sudden end to what had felt like a magical run for the Avs   Presented by Ramos Law and ramoslaw.com   This show is brought to you by RefiJet   Did you know you could refinance your auto loan?   With RefiJet, you could save around $150 a month—all with just a soft credit pull and zero hassle.

In the first hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, Jared Bednar is still the head coach of the Avalanche and the guys wonder if this means he’s here to stay. Mike marvels at Shohei Ohtani’s performance against the Rockies last night. Are we witnessing the GOAT? The guys discuss how important Jarrett Stidham’s relationship with Bo is to the Broncos as Mike makes a crazy pitch for the Broncos’ backup. News is coming out about the severity of Cale Makar’s shoulder injury but is it any excuse for how the Avalanche lost in the Western Conference Finals? Mike and Stoke wrap up the first hour by losing a bet and talking about Bat Boy. 

In hour 3 of The Drive, Zach and Phil react to the rumors of Cale Makar's injury and potentially missing the beginning of next season. We speculate what the injury could be and debate how much money Makar will make on his contract extension. Would a new Makar contract put the Avalanche in a tough position to fill out the rest of the roster with good depth? We give former Avalanche Claude Lemieux a heartfelt tribute as he took his own life this week. How safe is Jared Bednar to return as the head coach of the Avalanche next season? Zach shares the history of the most recent coaching hires for the Avalanche, mostly being first-time head coaches. Would they continue this track record if they move on from Bednar? We dive into the Broncos and debate if Que Robinson is ready for a bigger role on the defense. We react to ESPN listing Payton Watson as a top restricted free agent in the NBA this offseason. Could the Nuggets move on from Cam Johnson and/or Christian Braun to make room to retain Watson?

On this episode of the Blackhawks Breakaway Podcast, Pat Boyle and Charlie Roumeliotis break down Vegas' stunning sweep of Colorado in the 2026 Western Conference Final and discuss the John Tortorella effect. They dive into Mitch Marner's postseason, what went wrong for the Avalanche, Cale Makar's injury, and whether Colorado should consider a coaching change. The guys also discuss the Eastern Conference Final between Carolina and Montreal, including the electric atmosphere at Bell Centre and why they believe it's the best building in the NHL. Later in the show, Pat and Charlie provide an update on Team USA's path toward repeating at the IIHF World Championship, discuss Ivar Stenberg's tournament performance, and debate whether Toronto could consider taking him No. 1 overall. They wrap up by projecting what Connor Bedard's next contract could look like, and whether Macklin Celebrini could be the first to sign to help set the market.

For the fourth and final hour of the day on Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, they make a checklist of moves the Avs must make to keep the championship window open. Who would you rather trade if the Avs broke up their core: Nathan MacKinnon or Cale Makar? Jared Bednar got an endorsement from the guy who just beat him, does it matter to the higher-ups who decide his fate? Or are there other factors at work? They answer texts about goaltending from the 9am listeners. Mike, Stink, and Stoke cap off today’s show talking about practice. 

0:00 - Sean Payton hates the phrase, but who cares? The Avs aren't his hump anyway. Should the Avs "run it back" next season? What would that look like?15:43 - A lot of people have been saying "quit" and "give up" about the Avs. Did the quit last night in Game 4? Did they give up? Or did they battle til the bitter end?32:28 - The conversation surrounding Cale Makar, his injury, and his return were...curious, to say the least. We'll probably find out more about his injury in the coming weeks.

Griffin Warner talks betting for Tuesday. Griffin Warner returns with the May 26 edition of What I Bet on the Straight Outta Vegas AM pregame.com podcast feed, covering a critical NHL elimination game and a full 13-game MLB slate in one of the busiest betting days of the early summer. On the ice, Griffin explains why he is not buying the Colorado Avalanche as road favorites against the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 4 of the Western Conference Final. The Avs fell 5-3 in Game 3 and now trail 3-0, with Nathan MacKinnon's knee injury after blocking a shot adding serious uncertainty to Colorado's roster situation. Cale Makar returned from his own upper-body absence but Griffin says he never looked fully himself, and the backhand goal from Tomas Hertl that extended Vegas's lead was the moment that defined the game. Golden Knights minus 102 is his play. On the baseball side, Griffin works through every matchup on the board, starting with the Washington Nationals and Cade Cavalli against the Cleveland Guardians and Joey Cantillo, leaning Cleveland at minus 130. He covers the Tampa Bay Rays and Griffin Jax against a bullpen game, with former Rays righty Shane Baz, now an Oriole, having pitched well against Tampa recently, and finds value in the under on total first five at plus 100. He leans to Keider Montero and the under in Detroit against the Angels and Jack Kochanowicz, backs Boston and Ranger Suarez plus 100 over Spencer Strider and the Braves because Strider still needs to prove his return from elbow surgery is complete, monitors Sandy Alcantara and Miami against the Blue Jays and Braydon Fisher in a bullpen game, and sides with the Mets and David Peterson over the Reds and Chase Burns in a battle where plus money is simply too attractive to ignore. Kyle Harrison has been one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball since joining Milwaukee from Boston and Griffin respects him enormously but cannot pay minus 170. He leans under on Cam Schlittler and the Yankees against Kansas City and Bailey Falter after recounting how Lucas Erceg's blown save on a misplaced slider to Anthony Volpe cost him a two-unit win the night before. Joe Ryan and the Twins draw plus money from Sean Burke and the White Sox, making the under on seven and a half the natural lean. The Houston Astros no-hit Texas on Monday and Griffin reads that as a direct statement on how poorly the Rangers have been hitting and how difficult Globe Life Field plays, leaning under against Jack Leiter. Aaron Nola and the Phillies get the nod over Randy Vasquez and the Padres after Vasquez was scratched Monday and slid into Tuesday's spot. Emerson Hancock and Luis Severino shape up as a low-scoring Sacramento game, Eduardo Rodriguez and Tyler Mahle figure to keep it quiet at Oracle Park, and there is simply no case for backing Kyle Freeland and the Rockies at plus 206 in Los Angeles against Eric Lauer's Dodger debut. Griffin's Best Bet is the Pittsburgh Pirates and Braxton Ashcraft at minus 125 over the Cubs and Jordan Wicks, who is making his first big-league start of the season after being recalled from Triple-A Iowa following a stint on the IL.

Montreal dropped a tough OT decision to Carolina as Andrei Svechnikov scored the winner for a 2-1 series lead, with Lane Hutson publicly taking responsibility for a giveaway that led to the OT goal. Rod Brind’Amour’s team-first mentality continues to define the Hurricanes and Martin St. Louis now faces the challenge of keeping the Canadiens focused on tightening up defensively — particularly clearing the zone and protecting the middle of the ice — rather than dwelling on one play. Out West, Vegas has stunned Colorado with a 3-0 series lead as injuries to Nathan MacKinnon, quiet performances from several Avs stars and stronger goaltending from the Golden Knights have tilted the series heavily. Mark Stone’s impactful return in game 3 arguably overshadowed the hype around Cale Makar’s comeback. Coaching chatter continues as John Tortorella’s future remains uncertain despite a potential championship run, with Ryan Craig viewed as Vegas’ eventual successor. Meanwhile in Colorado there’s growing speculation about sweeping organizational changes if the Avalanche are eliminated as early as tonight.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In hour 2 of The Memorial Day edition of The Drive, John Davis and Chad Andrus debate which injury in Denver sports was the most impactful in derailing their team's championship hopes between Bo Nix, Cale Makar, and Aaron Gordon. Would the Nuggets have had a chance at winning a championship if Aaron Gordon were healthy? Would Bo Nix have led the Broncos to a Super Bowl if he hadn't missed the AFC Championship? Was Cale Makar the difference in the Avs being down 0-3 or being competitive in the series? How much did the coaches on each team help or hurt after each team sustained injuries? Today's "Three Count" features recapping the Spurs and Thunder as they go into game 5 in a 2-2 series stalemate, Princeton taking home the NCAA Men's Lacrosse championship, and previewing the Knicks and Cavaliers as New York looks to sweep the Eastern Conference Finals. Is trading Jamal Murray the best course of action for the Nuggets to become more flexible with the roster and also add youth and athleticism?

(27:15) Later on, intern Sam Robbins joins Shan and Connor to weigh in on the Eastern Conference Final and predict what will happen in game 3 and the rest of the series!

Montreal stunned Carolina 6–2 in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Final, swarming the Hurricanes with four first-period goals and exposing signs of rust after Carolina’s 12-day layoff, as Rod Brind’Amour admitted his team wasn’t ready for the Canadiens’ pace, long stretch passes and relentless transition game. Cole Caufield’s quick response goal after Carolina scored 33 seconds in shifted momentum immediately, as the Canes aggressive play allowed Montreal to repeatedly generate breakaways. Carolina will need a bounce-back in Game 2, especially from Frederik Andersen and a Jacob Slavin, who struggled through a difficult night.
