Back with the boys in MTL, this time were building are perfect NFL QB's without using any NFL players.

The play­offs are wrapped up, though the Pan­thers are prob­a­bly still par­ty­ing hard, and it seems there's more hock­ey to talk than ever! First off, we talk Sergei Kos­tit­syn — the oth­er half of the broth­er­ly duo (we talked Andrei back in Novem­ber) who played for both the Habs and the Preda­tors, and became known as much for their off-ice exploits as for their per­for­mance at the rink! We also learn why it pays to have good line­mates and play junior hock­ey for the Hunter brothers! Then we do a quick draft recap — not many sur­pris­es as round one went pret­ty much chalk. The trades were the thing that sent rip­ples as some big names are mov­ing to new teams — Noah Dob­son to MTL, John Gib­son to DET, and JJ Peter­ka to UTAH, with Michael Kessel­ring shuf­flin' back to Buf­fa­lo. As teams jock­ey for finan­cial posi­tion in advance of free agency open­ing on Tues­day, some old faces — Tavares, Ben­nett and Benn have already decid­ed that the grass isn't green­er — buck­le up kids, it's about to get spicy! Final­ly, we dip into the mail­bag to answer some great ques­tions from the lis­ten­ers out there — plus, will co-host Tom final­ly make amends with Lindy?

The 2025 Draft is upon us and we have a quick review of the top prospects and what we think teams will do. Any big trades to come?  Also we'll have a look at free agency to see who are the biggest targets and which teams will be most active.

Canada and the United States may not face each other yet in Gold Cup competition, but the North and Great White North will still face each other. FC Cincinnati tries to make it a winning streak against CF Montréal this Wednesday evening. The last time the Orange & Blue traveled to Stade Saputo, they came back with a 2-1 loss, but some distant Orellano magic quelled any thoughts of an away win later on. The first half of the season has been a struggle for Le CFM, but some hope still exists. We talk with Justine from the 1642 MTL supporters' group to get her thoughts on the "buy low, sell high" strategy and the coaching change early in the season.
