NHL – Hall of Famer Bobby Hull, the Golden Jet, dies at 84 Hall of Fame forward Bobby Hull, who helped the Chicago Black Hawks win the 1961 Stanley Cup Final, has died. Hull was 84. The two-time MVP was one of the most prolific scorers in NHL history, leading the league in goals seven times. Nicknamed “The Golden Jet” for his speed and blond hair, he posted 13 consecutive seasons with 30 goals or more from 1959-72. Hull and Stan Mikita powered Chicago to the NHL title in 1961. Hull remains the Blackhawks' career leader with 62 playoff goals. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1983 and his No. 9 sweater was retired by Chicago that same year. Hull's brother, Dennis, played for Chicago for most of his 14 years in the league, and Bobby's son, Brett, spent 19 years in the NHL. Bobby and Brett each won the Hart Trophy as league MVP, becoming the first father-son duo to accomplish the feat. Bobby won in 1964-65 and 1965-1966, while Brett won in 1990-1991. NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Dallas Mavericks 111, Detroit Pistons 105 Mavs 111, Pistons 105 – Doncic scores 53 in return, Mavericks beat Pistons 111-105 Luka Doncic had 53 points in his return to the lineup and Spencer Dinwiddie scored 10 of his 12 in the fourth quarter as the Dallas Mavericks rallied to beat the Detroit Pistons 111-105. Four of Doncic's five career 50-point games have come this season. He scored a career-best 60 against the New York Knicks in a game that went to overtime on Dec. 27. Bojan Bogdanovic had 29 points and Saddiq Bey scored 18 for the Pistons. Tonight Los Angeles Clippers at Chicago Bulls, 8:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Men's College Basketball Tonight Northern Illinois at Western Michigan, 7:00 p.m. Central Michigan at Kent State, 7:00 p.m. Ohio at Eastern Michigan, 7:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Purdue a unanimous No. 1 in AP Top 25; Vols up to No. 2 Purdue is this season’s first unanimous No. 1 team in the AP men's college basketball poll. The Boilermakers have won eight straight games since a one-point loss to Rutgers on Jan. 2. They were followed in the AP Top 25 by Tennessee, Houston, Alabama and Arizona in the top five. No. 11 Baylor and No. 17 Providence made the biggest jumps, each climbing six spots. Auburn had the biggest drop, falling 10 spots to No. 25. No. 21 Indiana and No. 22 San Diego State rejoined the poll at the expense of Charleston and New Mexico. NCAAWBKB – South Carolina tops AP Top 25; Ohio State tumbles South Carolina, Stanford and LSU are the top teams in the latest women’s AP Top 25 college basketball rankings. South Carolina is No. 1 for the 32nd consecutive week. Only UConn (51 and 34 weeks) and Louisiana Tech (36) have had longer runs at No. 1. Indiana and UConn round out top five. Ohio State lost all three of its games last week and dropped from No. 2 to No. 10. NCAAFB – Rashada case in Florida highlights issues in NIL, recruiting Using name, image and likeness compensation to recruit college athletes is still very much against NCAA rules. The recent de-commitment from Florida by blue chip quarterback Jaden Rashada shows that NIL is definitely a factor in decisions. Booster-funded collectives are taking on a big role in compensating athletes. Schools can only hope they are acting within the rules and in their best interest. Inserting a third-party in the recruiting process between coaches and recruits has only complicated things. Experts say the collectives should focus on athletes who are already on campus.

NHL – Hall of Famer Bobby Hull, the Golden Jet, dies at 84 Hall of Fame forward Bobby Hull, who helped the Chicago Black Hawks win the 1961 Stanley Cup Final, has died. Hull was 84. The two-time MVP was one of the most prolific scorers in NHL history, leading the league in goals seven times. Nicknamed “The Golden Jet” for his speed and blond hair, he posted 13 consecutive seasons with 30 goals or more from 1959-72. Hull and Stan Mikita powered Chicago to the NHL title in 1961. Hull remains the Blackhawks' career leader with 62 playoff goals. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1983 and his No. 9 sweater was retired by Chicago that same year. Hull's brother, Dennis, played for Chicago for most of his 14 years in the league, and Bobby's son, Brett, spent 19 years in the NHL. Bobby and Brett each won the Hart Trophy as league MVP, becoming the first father-son duo to accomplish the feat. Bobby won in 1964-65 and 1965-1966, while Brett won in 1990-1991. NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Dallas Mavericks 111, Detroit Pistons 105 Mavs 111, Pistons 105 – Doncic scores 53 in return, Mavericks beat Pistons 111-105 Luka Doncic had 53 points in his return to the lineup and Spencer Dinwiddie scored 10 of his 12 in the fourth quarter as the Dallas Mavericks rallied to beat the Detroit Pistons 111-105. Four of Doncic's five career 50-point games have come this season. He scored a career-best 60 against the New York Knicks in a game that went to overtime on Dec. 27. Bojan Bogdanovic had 29 points and Saddiq Bey scored 18 for the Pistons. Tonight Los Angeles Clippers at Chicago Bulls, 8:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Men's College Basketball Tonight Northern Illinois at Western Michigan, 7:00 p.m. Central Michigan at Kent State, 7:00 p.m. Ohio at Eastern Michigan, 7:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Purdue a unanimous No. 1 in AP Top 25; Vols up to No. 2 Purdue is this season’s first unanimous No. 1 team in the AP men's college basketball poll. The Boilermakers have won eight straight games since a one-point loss to Rutgers on Jan. 2. They were followed in the AP Top 25 by Tennessee, Houston, Alabama and Arizona in the top five. No. 11 Baylor and No. 17 Providence made the biggest jumps, each climbing six spots. Auburn had the biggest drop, falling 10 spots to No. 25. No. 21 Indiana and No. 22 San Diego State rejoined the poll at the expense of Charleston and New Mexico. NCAAWBKB – South Carolina tops AP Top 25; Ohio State tumbles South Carolina, Stanford and LSU are the top teams in the latest women’s AP Top 25 college basketball rankings. South Carolina is No. 1 for the 32nd consecutive week. Only UConn (51 and 34 weeks) and Louisiana Tech (36) have had longer runs at No. 1. Indiana and UConn round out top five. Ohio State lost all three of its games last week and dropped from No. 2 to No. 10. NCAAFB – Rashada case in Florida highlights issues in NIL, recruiting Using name, image and likeness compensation to recruit college athletes is still very much against NCAA rules. The recent de-commitment from Florida by blue chip quarterback Jaden Rashada shows that NIL is definitely a factor in decisions. Booster-funded collectives are taking on a big role in compensating athletes. Schools can only hope they are acting within the rules and in their best interest. Inserting a third-party in the recruiting process between coaches and recruits has only complicated things. Experts say the collectives should focus on athletes who are already on campus.

NHL – Hall of Famer Bobby Hull, the Golden Jet, dies at 84 Hall of Fame forward Bobby Hull, who helped the Chicago Black Hawks win the 1961 Stanley Cup Final, has died. Hull was 84. The two-time MVP was one of the most prolific scorers in NHL history, leading the league in goals seven times. Nicknamed “The Golden Jet” for his speed and blond hair, he posted 13 consecutive seasons with 30 goals or more from 1959-72. Hull and Stan Mikita powered Chicago to the NHL title in 1961. Hull remains the Blackhawks' career leader with 62 playoff goals. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1983 and his No. 9 sweater was retired by Chicago that same year. Hull's brother, Dennis, played for Chicago for most of his 14 years in the league, and Bobby's son, Brett, spent 19 years in the NHL. Bobby and Brett each won the Hart Trophy as league MVP, becoming the first father-son duo to accomplish the feat. Bobby won in 1964-65 and 1965-1966, while Brett won in 1990-1991. NBA – National Basketball Association Last Night Dallas Mavericks 111, Detroit Pistons 105 Mavs 111, Pistons 105 – Doncic scores 53 in return, Mavericks beat Pistons 111-105 Luka Doncic had 53 points in his return to the lineup and Spencer Dinwiddie scored 10 of his 12 in the fourth quarter as the Dallas Mavericks rallied to beat the Detroit Pistons 111-105. Four of Doncic's five career 50-point games have come this season. He scored a career-best 60 against the New York Knicks in a game that went to overtime on Dec. 27. Bojan Bogdanovic had 29 points and Saddiq Bey scored 18 for the Pistons. Tonight Los Angeles Clippers at Chicago Bulls, 8:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Men's College Basketball Tonight Northern Illinois at Western Michigan, 7:00 p.m. Central Michigan at Kent State, 7:00 p.m. Ohio at Eastern Michigan, 7:00 p.m. NCAAMBKB – Purdue a unanimous No. 1 in AP Top 25; Vols up to No. 2 Purdue is this season’s first unanimous No. 1 team in the AP men's college basketball poll. The Boilermakers have won eight straight games since a one-point loss to Rutgers on Jan. 2. They were followed in the AP Top 25 by Tennessee, Houston, Alabama and Arizona in the top five. No. 11 Baylor and No. 17 Providence made the biggest jumps, each climbing six spots. Auburn had the biggest drop, falling 10 spots to No. 25. No. 21 Indiana and No. 22 San Diego State rejoined the poll at the expense of Charleston and New Mexico. NCAAWBKB – South Carolina tops AP Top 25; Ohio State tumbles South Carolina, Stanford and LSU are the top teams in the latest women’s AP Top 25 college basketball rankings. South Carolina is No. 1 for the 32nd consecutive week. Only UConn (51 and 34 weeks) and Louisiana Tech (36) have had longer runs at No. 1. Indiana and UConn round out top five. Ohio State lost all three of its games last week and dropped from No. 2 to No. 10. NCAAFB – Rashada case in Florida highlights issues in NIL, recruiting Using name, image and likeness compensation to recruit college athletes is still very much against NCAA rules. The recent de-commitment from Florida by blue chip quarterback Jaden Rashada shows that NIL is definitely a factor in decisions. Booster-funded collectives are taking on a big role in compensating athletes. Schools can only hope they are acting within the rules and in their best interest. Inserting a third-party in the recruiting process between coaches and recruits has only complicated things. Experts say the collectives should focus on athletes who are already on campus.

Influencers of Sponsorship Marketing - a Roth Revenue Podcast
Nic Sulsky is not short on passion, enthusiasm, and opinion. He also knows the iGaming space as well as anyone… anywhere. Combine those two and you can see why PointsBet – an Australian-owned sportsbook operator – tapped Nic to lead their sales and marketing efforts in Canada. You see, PointsBet entered the Ontario sportsbook waters at a disadvantage to their rivals when the government opened the coveted Ontario market to licensed and regulated operators on April 4 of this year. Their pockets weren't as deep, and they didn't have an existing database to convert to paying bettors. So Nic and his team had to be crafty. A couple pillars they leaned on heavily were sponsorships and influencer marketing, quickly snapping up deals with Curling Canada, Alpine Canada, the Trailer Park Boys, NHL Alumni Association and – most recently – MLSE. All part of Nic's strategy to build a brand wrapped in the Canadian flag. In our chat, Nic shares that strategy and his views on the Ontario sports betting market. We also stepped back and revisited his time as president of the popular disruptor daily fantasy brand, Monkey Knife Fight (any Simpsons fans out there?). A brand that in less than 3 years got purchased by Bally's for $90 million. The sports betting business in Canada has never been hotter and Nic is the perfect guest to discuss it with. Some terrific insights, fun stories… and even an explanation of how one can be both a Habs fan and a Leafs fan at the same time. I hope you enjoy!

My next guest, goaltender Glenn Healy, is a Canadian-born hockey player who played his college hockey at Western Michigan and then went on to play 437 NHL games with the Los Angeles Kings, New York Islanders, New York Rangers and the Toronto Maple Leafs over a 15-year career. During the 1993-94 season, he won the Stanley Cup with the New York Rangers, erasing a 54-year drought for the Blue Shirts. Once retired, Mr. Healy spent some time in the broadcasting sector, working for the CBC, TSN and Rogers. Is currently the President and Executive Director of the NHL Alumni Association, so we have a lot to talk about. Enjoy the interview :)
The fellas survived their moving weekends and are now all settled into their new cribs just in time to take in the majesty of Augusta!

It was the Connor McDavid episode of The DFO Rundown and it was fitting considering what happened in Edmonton over the weekend. The Oilers blew a 3-1 lead to the Senators and things are getting out of hand in Alberta's capital city. Jason and Frank talked about that off the top and Tyler Yaremchuk had a new round of Buy or Sell. They then welcomed in former NHLer Glenn Healy to talk about an exciting new partnership between our friends at Pointsbet Canada and the NHL Alumni Association! He also shared some great stories from his legendary NHL career!
Another Thursday has landed on our calendars and the boys are back with a fresh Real Life Podcast to help you get through the rest of the week. Today, the boys talked about the latest Evander Kane drama, a random chat about Chicago Mix, speeding tickets, and welcomed Nic Sulsky from PointsBet Canada to talk about a brand new partnership. To kick off the Thursday episode of Real Life, the podcast got started with a story from Tyler about wiping out in front of his apartment building after Edmonton's weather shot the moon by 30+ degrees over the last few days, creating an icy situation that everyone is having to deal with after an insane deep freeze over the last couple of weeks. That led to a lengthy conversation about speeding tickets and how everyone on the podcast seems to collect these things at a very high level. Now, some may say that speeding is irresponsible — we would agree — but for some of the boys, picking up the tickets seems like a way to give back to the city they love. All jokes, of course. With the ticket talk out of the way, the guys got fired up about the cheddar vs caramel popcorn distribution in a bag of Chicago Mix. While you'd imagine a 50-50 split, the guys weren't so sure that this is how things actually work in practice. Getting to the Oilers, the guys talked about the latest drama surrounding the seemingly neverending Evander Kane drama and how it's creating all kinds of distractions around the hockey team. Lastly, the guys wrapped up this episode of Real Life by welcoming Nic Sulsky from PointsBet Canada to talk about their new partnership with the NHL Alumni Association and how it will provide Nation citizens with new and different avenues to create content. Needless to say, everyone was very excited to hear Nic's vision for this new project and we know that you will be too once you hear it.

Bob and John are finally taking a vacation but rather than leave you guys with nothing we figured we would fill this week with some of Bob's favourite guests over the course of our 220 Episodes. Recently, GLENN HEALY - former goaltender, Stanley Cup Champion, Broadcaster and current Executive Director & President of the NHL Alumni Association - made his third appearance on the show, today you can hear some of his best soundbites and stories from all three episodes (76, 156 & 212) with Bob and John.
GLENN HEALY, a friend of the podcast, joins the show to catch up with Bob and John. We pick Glenn's brain about his position at the NHL Alumni Association, what he thinks about TNT signing Wayne Gretzky for their hockey broadcast and his thoughts on the NHL allowing players to compete in the Olympic games. We also find out about Glenn's future plans, if getting back into broadcasting is in his future pans and as always, Glenn always has some great stories ready to be told.
Great Maple Leafs content in this episode from spring of 2018 when Paul and Andy host Kincardine native Scott McKay who was equipment manager for the Leafs for more than 10 years. Can you guess which NHLer he sometimes had to tie the skates for? McKay has also worked for the NHL Alumni Association and been involved in several other interesting initiatives. Steve joins us in the 2nd half when the recent hiring of Kyle Dubas really grabbed our attention!Twitter: @HockeyTalk913
Glenn Healy joins Ian Pulver on this week's episode of Storytellers. Healy is known most for his exploits as NHL goaltender, but he now acts as the executive director of the NHL Alumni Association. Healy talks about his mission with the group and the support he has received from hockey greats such as Wayne Gretzky, Paul Coffey and Mark Messier. Healy paints the picture of what it is like for a player as he transitions out of the game and has some great messages for current players, too. Whether it tending goal, behind the broadcast mic or championing player causes, Healy does it with passion and determination. The son of a World War II veteran, Healy's approach to everything he does is "all in."
Can cannabis help former NHL players deal with their symptoms of post-concussion neurological disease? A new clinical research deal between the NHL Alumni Association and Canopy Growth may reveal the answer… Listen to this report from CKNW Contributor Claire Allen…
Happy Wednesday everyone! Dean and Daren are joined by none other than Jimmy and Prince and Cannabis Phil. Daren is meeting Jimmy for the first time. He has so many questions. The boys play our new game “ 5 Things In My Browser History”. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau might be forced to step down! Canadian politics bore Dean, he tells us why. The NHL Alumni Association has teamed up with Canopy Growth to research concussions and cannabinoids. Huge news. Daren clarifies the difference between the NHL and the NHL Alumni Association and Phil gives us his expert breakdown. We get into pot use and sponsorships in professional sports and how that may work in the future. We talk NRBs and the backpack book boner bag. Matthew Barnaby joins us to talk about his new podcast "Unfiltered" with Matthew Barnaby, when it's dropping and what we can expect. We are really excited for his segment drambuie island! We close with R.Kelly's sit down interview with Gale King. It was outrageous. Enjoy! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
