It's a Quick Fix featuring Joe Buono (@IslesFix) and former VP of Communications for the Islanders, Chris Botta (@ChrisBottaNHL).The list of potential Islanders GMs is long, very long. In the last week, fans and media alike have speculated about a wide range and variety of candidates from Hall-of-Famers, to retreads, to popular Assistant GMs, and out-of-the-box options from around the league.For the first time, possibly in their history, the Islanders are conducting a proper search for their general manager. The man in charge of that search is John Collins, and reports indicate there's been no shortage of interest from qualified candidates around the league. It's now the job of Collins to sift through the chatter and the noise and decide which candidates deserve a long look.Plus, Chris and Joe comment on the organization letting go of radio broadcasters Chris King and Greg Picker, and the backlash response from the media and fan base. Is there still time for the team to reverse course? Joe then asks Chris where he was when Lanny McDonald broke the 1977-78 Islanders' hearts in overtime, which happened 47 years ago today at the Nassau Coliseum.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Detroit Tigers 9, Kansas City Royals 4 Chicago Cubs 8, Pittsburgh Pirates 3 Texas Rangers 6, Chicago White Sox 3 Tigers 9, Royals 4 – Zack Short homers, Javier Báez gets 1,000th hit to lead Tigers over Royals 9-4 Zack Short homered and drove in three runs, Javier Báez got his 1,000th hit and Detroit sent slumping Kansas City to its 15th loss in 18 games. Matthew Boyd (5-5) allowed two runs and six hits in six innings for Detroit. He struck out seven without a walk. Brady Singer (4-7) lost his third straight decision, giving up five runs, seven hits and a walk in seven innings. Báez put the Tigers ahead 4-2 in the third, driving in Kerry Carpenter with his 1,000th hit. Cubs 8, Pirates 3 – Hendricks shuts down reeling Pirates as Cubs complete 3-game sweep with 8-3 victory Kyle Hendricks pitched effectively into the seventh inning and the Chicago Cubs beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 8-3 to complete a three-game sweep. Nico Hoerner homered and tripled for the Cubs, who have won eight of nine. Ian Happ doubled twice and drove in three runs for Chicago. Josh Palacios had an RBI double for Pittsburgh but couldn’t stop the Pirates from dropping their ninth straight game. Pittsburgh has managed just 20 runs during a slide that’s seen the Pirates drop from first to fourth in the NL Central. Rangers 6, White Sox 3 – Heim homers as Rangers beat the White Sox 6-3 Jonah Heim hit a three-run homer a night after he was involved in a controversial play at the plate and the Texas Rangers beat the Chicago White Sox 6-3. Ezequiel Duran also connected as Texas won for the fourth time in five games. Martín Pérez pitched seven effective innings in his first victory in a month. The AL West leaders bounced back nicely after a frustrating 7-6 loss on Tuesday night. Chicago scored the winning run in its three-run eighth when Heim was called for illegally blocking the plate in a replay review that overturned umpire D.J. Reyburn’s out call. Today Tigers, Cubs, and White Sox are off MLB – MLB sued by 17 ex-scouts who say they were discriminated against because of age Seventeen former Major League Baseball scouts who say they were discriminated against because of their age have sued the league, its teams and Commissioner Rob Manfred. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Denver. The former scouts allege violations of the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 along with laws in 11 states and New York City. The scouts, ranging from 55 to 71, allege they were discriminated against from 2020-22. MLB said in a statement it looks "forward to refuting these claims in court.” NBA – NBA-champion Nuggets trade into the 1st round by swapping picks with the Pacers The NBA-champion Denver Nuggets struck a deal with Indiana to acquire a first-round round pick in the draft on Thursday night. The teams agreed to a deal that also gives the Nuggets the 32nd overall pick, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The Pacers will receive the 40th pick in this year’s draft from Denver and a first-round pick in 2024. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the trade has yet to be announced. NBA – With Wembanyama, there’s no debate at the top of NBA draft Victor Wembanyama’s towering shadow has hung over this NBA draft for months, blocking much of what is usually part of the process. There has been no debate about who the San Antonio Spurs should take with the No. 1 pick on Thursday night. When a player like Wembanyama comes along — and maybe none ever has — there’s no real reason to drum up any drama. The Spurs are not going to pass up someone who is listed at 7’4” but has the skills of a player much smaller. The 19-year-old from France has been called the best prospect since LeBron James came out of high school in 2003. NBA – NBA Draft Picks Detroit, 5, 31 Chicago: 11 (traded to Orlando), 42 (traded to Washington) Indiana: 7, 26 (from Cleveland), 40 (from Dallas), 55 (from Cleveland) WNBA – Women’s National Basketball Association Tonight Washington Mystics at Chicago Sky, 8:00 p.m. Indiana Fever at Seattle Storm, 10:00 p.m. Golf – PGA Tour will appear before a Senate panel investigating its deal with LIV A Senate subcommittee is asking executives from the PGA Tour, Saudi golf interests and LIV Golf to testify as Congress investigates the shocking business deal that upended the sport. Sen. Richard Blumenthal announced Wednesday that the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations would hold a hearing on July 11 to examine the stunning agreement the PGA Tour now has with Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund and the European tour. He invited PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan, Public Investment Fund Governor Yasir Al-Rumayyan and LIV CEO Greg Norman to testify. The PGA Tour said in a statement that it looked forward to appearing to answer questions about the “framework agreement.” Golf – Zhang seeking to follow win in pro debut with a win at a major Rose Zhang turned professional with many expecting great things and she didn’t disappoint, winning the Mizuho Americas Open in her debut. The 20-year-old, two-time NCAA individual champion will look to keep it going this week when she takes on the best in women’s golf in the Women’s PGA Championship at Baltustol in Springfield, New Jersey. The task will be tougher this week with all 11 winners on the LPGA Tour and 19 of the top 20 players in the world entered in the event. Zhang said the biggest change for her has been the demands on her time. Hockey – Henrik Lundqvist headlines the Hockey Hall of Fame’s goalie-heavy class of 2023 Henrik Lundqvist headlines the Hockey Hall of Fame’s goaltender-heavy class of 2023. Fellow netminders Tom Barrasso and Red Wing Mike Vernon were also among the five players elected. Former NHL forward Pierre Turgeon and Canadian women’s hockey star Caroline Ouellette were also chosen. Stanley Cup-winning coach Ken Hitchcock and late executive Pierre Lacroix were picked in the builder category. Lundqvist is set to be inducted into the Hall in his first year of eligibility after winning Olympic gold for Sweden in 2006 and a pro career that included backstopping the New York Rangers to 11 playoff appearances in 12 seasons. Vernon was so surprised he thought board chairman Lanny McDonald, a teammate when they won the Cup together with Calgary in 1989, was calling to ask him to play golf. The two-time Cup champion who was also playoff MVP when he won it in 1997 with Detroit had been eligible since 2005. "The game has meant a lot to me throughout my life," Vernon said. “It is an emotional time for me. Might be a long time coming, but it’s still worth it.” FIFA – WWC – Morgan and Rapinoe selected for the US Women’s World Cup roster Eighteen-year-old Alyssa Thompson is among the 23 players selected for the United States team that will defend its title at the Women’s World Cup next month. Thompson is among a mix of veteran and newcomers named Wednesday to the team by head coach Vlatko Andonovski. Among the experienced players are Megan Rapinoe and Alex Morgan, who will each be making a fourth World Cup appearance in Australia and New Zealand. Thompson is joined by fellow up-and-coming stars Sophia Smith and Trinity Rodman, who is the daughter of former NBA star Dennis Rodman. Olympics – IOC warns Afghanistan about Olympic status over denying sports to women The Afghanistan team’s status for the 2024 Paris Olympics has been put in question by the IOC over growing frustration with the Taliban blocking access to sport for women and girls. The International Olympic Committee says it “continues to be extremely concerned” about the sports situation in Afghanistan despite its repeated calls for action. The IOC says it has the right to take further measures. And it notes details for an Afghanistan delegation going to the Paris Games haven’t been decided. The IOC could suspend Afghanistan’s Olympic body for government interference and support athletes to compete as an independent team.

The scouts, ranging from 55 to 71, allege they were discriminated against from 2020-22.

There has been no debate about who the San Antonio Spurs should take with the No. 1 pick on Thursday night. When a player like Wembanyama comes along — and maybe none ever has — there’s no real reason to drum up any drama. The Spurs are not going to pass up someone who is listed at 7’4” but has the skills of a player much smaller. The 19-year-old from France has been called the best prospect since LeBron James came out of high school in 2003.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have not won the Stanley Cup since 1967. The reason? Two words: Harold Ballard.The curmudgeonly owner ruined the team in the '70s and '80s with a tight-fisted reign of error that played out almost daily in that era's sports pages. The man who caused Leaf's captain Darryl Sittler to rip the "C" off his jersey and who lived in his arena, Maple Leaf Gardens, finally gets the documentary he deserves. It is all thanks to this episode's podcast guests: executive producer Michael Geddes (Lone Eagle Entertainment) and Jason Priestley, who produces, directs and narrates. Listen as the two tell how they met to develop a scripted series before realizing they better do the doc first. Priestley tells of interviewing many of his hockey heroes, including Sittler, Lanny McDonald, Wendel Clark, Tiger Williams, Rick Vaive and other players of the day. Don Cherry, Allan Eagleson and sportswriters such as Mary Ormsby, Allen Able and Stephen Brunt also weigh in on the tumultuous Ballard years.Don't wait for Leafs to win another a Stanley Cup. Listen to this epic tale of woe now, then watch "Offside: The Harold Ballard Story" Sunday, January 22 on CBC and CBC Gem.

We're joined in this one by former NHL defenceman Jamie Macoun, who has some amazing stories from his NHL days, particularly with the Calgary Flames and Toronto Maple Leafs. Russ never enjoyed going into the corner to battle with Macoun. Jamie talks about some colourful general managers he had in the past like Doug Risebrough who didn't exactly treat Doug Gilmour fairly. He had zero love for Toronto's associate GM duo of Ken Dryden and Mike Smith. Former teammate Mike Bullard felt a little too welcome at Jamie's house, even using his bathroom in the middle of the night. Lanny McDonald was always late for everything. Things got a little tense in Toronto when the Leafs acquired so many former Flames and Oilers and Jamie was NOT going to share a room with Glen Anderson. Toronto definitely wasn't an easy place to play when things weren't going well. And what happened in Jamie's post-NHL career that saw him get not one but two bank deposits for $16 million??? All that and more in this episode of the Suspendables!

We're back and so is the Summer Top 10 List! The OHL is looking into the possibility of being forced to play without hitting this season. What would that even look like? And how realistic is it tat this will happen? The NHL is still looking at what this upcoming season will look like. 48 games? Waiting until after the Olympics?

In 1976, no one picked the Toronto Maple Leafs to beat the back-to-back Stanley Cup-winning Philadelphia Flyers in the 2nd round of the playoffs. Leafs coach Red Kelly knew that, to best the 'Broad Street Bullies,' he'd need more than superior strategy. He'd need an ace in the hole: a twelve foot pyramid in the middle of his locker room. Whether he truly believed in the power of pyramids of not, he was willing to do anything. And in the mysticism-friendly 1970s, the power of pyramids almost inspired his troops to greatness. The world of this week's story seems a million miles away from today's NHL. The brand of hockey the Broad Street Buddies introduced to the league soon went the way of the Dodo. The league changed its rule book, introducing penalties for instigation and limiting the potential for bench-clearing. Then, the Scotty Bowman-coached Montreal Canadiens ascended to dominance, ending Philadelphia's supremacy. With the likes of Guy Lafleur, Ken Dryden, Yvan Cournoyer and Larry Robinson, the 70s Canadiens embodied hockey purists' idea of 'the best of the game.' Even Leafs fan had to tip their hats to the Habs' four straight Cup wins. Kate Smith's talismanic potency came to a gradual end around the same time the Flyers' supremacy ended. She couldn't help Philly beat Montreal, and her record fell of considerably after that. In 1987, the team erected a statue of Smith outside The Spectrum. The statue was transported to what is now the Wells Fargo Center when the team moved. But in 2019, controversy around racist sentiment in Smith's 1931 recordings led to the end of her use in sports matches in Philadelphia and elsewhere. The statue was torn down and permanently removed. No one in Philly talks about Kate much anymore. As for Red, after he was fired by Harold Ballard in 1977, he never coached in the NHL again. Instead, he went into business, working as a director on the board of Computer Aircraft Maintenance Programs (CAMP), a company owned by his wife Andra's family. CAMP is where Red would work alongside his daughter, Casey. It's where she got a front row seat to her father's leadership style. And where their relationship transcended that of father-daughter. Nowadays, few talk much about Red's time behind the bench. He is remembered more for his exploits as a player - and rightly so. That is where he truly achieved greatness. But for those Leafs fan who followed the team in the 1970s, the mere mention of 'Pyramid Power' still evokes the hopes and hilarious hi-jinks of the era.

They catch up on his book, nostalgia for the Expos and all-time great Canadian sports venues. Schrager checks in with a fresh take on the NFL draft and March Madness in New York City. Taggart recalls a classic tale from the road with Stan Mikita and Lanny McDonald. And we get to play "Six Degrees of Engineer Jim." This is one pod that's all boom and no bust!
In this week's episode, we begin with Sportage, and develop several exciting alternative rule sets for curling. How could curling possibly get more exciting? Just listen and find out. (OK, here's a hint: our ideas include fighting, exploding rocks, and bags of pubic hair.) As if that's not exciting enough, at one point Johnzo admits he has never seen Lanny McDonald naked. Loser! In Dictionary Plus, Warren asks us to find the opposite of the phrase, "There ain't no telling, I reckon." This predictably leads to a high-minded discussion about fuckin' epistemology.
