This week we said goodbye to Alan Greenspan, the man who spent two decades quietly rigging the economy for the wealthy, and encouraged working people to take on debt he knew would blow up in their faces (he would eventually call this a “flaw” ). Then we looked at housing starts, which just posted their worst number since COVID, with multifamily construction down 40% in a single month—because between 6.4% mortgage rates, all-time high home prices, and tariffs jacking up the cost of every material that goes into a build, the math simply doesn’t work.

A blockbuster trade over the weekend has the Tkachuk brothers - Matthew and Brady - as teammates in Florida.Vic and Neil review the trade which was made possible, in part, due to a deal done a short time before between the Panthers and Seattle Kraken.We'll also look at some additional signings of players who were retained by their clubs before getting to free agency on July 1 plus a dive into the Toronto-Tampa Bay trade which sees defenseman Darren Raddysh donning the Maple Leaf.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #BZZR #NHL #BradyTkachuk #MatthewTkachuk #MackieSamoskevich #BillZito #PaulMaurice #SteveStaios #BradMarchand #SamBennett #KeithTkachuk #JasonRobertson #MartyBeniers #FloridaPanthers #OttawaSenators #SeattleKraken #PhiladelphiaFlyers #PittsburghPenguins #DallasStars #EdmontonOilers #CarolinaHurricanes #BuffaloSabres #MontrealCanadiens #TampaBayLightning #TorontoMapleLeafs #LosAngelesKings #FourNationsFaceoff #MichiganWolverines #BobbyMcMann #JasonDickinson #ConnorMurphy #StanBowman #NickDeLauriers #EricTulsky #DarrenRaddysh #WarrenYoung #JulienBriseBois #GavinMcKenna #JohnChayka #JosephWoll #SimonBenoit #SamErsson #EmilAndrae #JimHiller #CraigBerube #CraigButton #TSN

Yes, even the Stanley Cup champions have spring cleaning though, in the case of the Carolina Hurricanes, not nearly as much as past winners.Sticking with the on-ice strategy set forth by head coach Rod Brind'Amour, the lineup was augmented during the off-season by GM Eric Tulsky with the team among the NHL elite from Day 1 to mid-June.Vic and Neil break down what made the difference and discuss how Carolina is set up both in the immediate and long term.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #BZZR #NHL #CarolinaHurricanes #VegasGoldenKnights #OttawaSenators #PhiladelphiaFlyers #MontrealCanadiens #FloridaPanthers #ChicagoWolves #TheAhl.com #ColoradoAvalanche #WinnipegJets #TorontoMapleLeafs #BostonBruins #NewJerseyDevils #DallasStars #EdmontonOilers #PittsburghPenguins #NewYorkRangers #ArizonaCoyotes #DetroitRedWings #RodBrind'Amour #EricTulsky #K'AndreMiller #NikolajEhlers #BrentBurns #DmitryOrlov #FrederikAndersen #PyotrKochetkov #CaydenPrimeau #BrandonBussi #JeffMarek #TheSheet #SethJarvis #AndreiSvechnikov #NathanMacKinnon #NikitaKucherov #MikkoRantanen #RayFerraro #ESPN #ShayneGostisbehere #EricRobinson #MarkJankowski #NickDeLauriers #MikeReilly #JordanStaal #ConnSmytheTrophy #JordanMartinook #JalenChatfield #AlexanderNikishin #JacksonBlake #TaylorHall #LoganStankoven #JaccobSlavin #CaleMakar #JackEichel

Three head coaching vacancies whittled down to one Wednesday with eye-opening selections in both Toronto and Vegas, leaving the Edmonton Oilers as the lone NHL club without a bench boss though that might not be for long.Following an apparently exhaustive search, the Maple Leafs landed on former Kings coach Jim Hiller while the Golden Knights opted to stay within the organization, tabbing AHL Henderson Silver Knights coach Ryan Craig for his first NHL head coaching position.Vic and Neil discuss both hirings plus, the breaking news in Edmonton where Mike Babcock has been cleared by the NHL to resume coaching, with all signs pointing to him signing with the Oilers.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #BZZR #NHL #TorontoMapleLeafs #VegasGoldenKnights #EdmontonOilers #LosAngelesKings #PhiladelphiaFlyers #DetroitRedWings #ColumbusBlueJakctes #HendersonSilverKnights #TheAHL.com #JimHiller #JohnChayka #MikeBabcock #DJSmith #BruceCassidy #MannyMalhotra #AustonMatthews #WilliamNylander #JohnTavares #MorganRielly #KellyMcCrimmon #GeorgeMcPhee #PatrickRoy #JayWoodcroft #JohnTortorella #CraigBerube #PatFerschweiler #WesternMichiganBroncos #DavidCarle #DenverPioneers #JoePavelski #PeterLaviolette #ToddMcLellan #KenHolland #JosephWoll #SamErsson #KrisKnoblauch #GerardGallant #PeterDeBoer #StanBowman #TrentFrederic #MikeCommodore #JohanFranzen #ESPN #WorldCupofHockey

Think you need diversion analytics software to identify diversion risk?Think again.In this Quick Take on Diversion Insights, Terri shares a practical, structured approach to diversion monitoring using reports that most healthcare organizations already have access to through their Automated Dispensing Machines (ADMs).The key isn't more software—it's more direction.In this episode, you'll learn about a five-week directed audit cycle that helps organizations focus limited resources on the areas most likely to uncover risk.Topics include:• High-risk controlled substance dispense volume audits• Total waste audits• Full-dose waste audits• Controlled substance cancel transaction audits• Non-controlled substance cancel transaction audits• How ADM reports can identify audit populations• Why directed audits are often more effective than random reviews• One of the most overlooked indicators in diversion monitoring: barcode scanning complianceTerri also explores a powerful but underutilized strategy—comparing barcode scanning habits for controlled substances versus non-controlled substances. Significant differences between the two may reveal workflow issues, policy drift, or patterns that deserve further investigation.Whether you're a diversion specialist, pharmacist, compliance professional, nurse leader, or part of a medication safety team, this episode offers practical steps for strengthening diversion monitoring without investing in specialized software.Sometimes the most effective audit program starts with data you already have.More from Rxpert Solutions

This week we took a detour into the joy of the Knicks championship and what it says about New York, collective identity, and why Zohran Mamdani’s politics make sense in a city where the billionaire and the bodega worker share the same sewer pipe. Then we got back to the markets, where a flood of new share issuances is quietly changing the supply and demand math that’s driven equities upward for 40 years.

Higher education is facing a numbers problem, but the solution isn't just about finding more students. In this Quick Take episode, GradComm CEO Cheryl Broom explores the three major forces reshaping higher education: changing demographics, evolving student expectations, and declining public confidence. With fewer high school graduates entering the pipeline and more colleges competing for those students, institutions must rethink how they attract, engage, and support learners.Cheryl breaks down why the “enrollment cliff” is actually a long-term demographic shift, why adult learners represent a major opportunity for colleges, and why rebuilding trust requires more than talking about affordability and degrees.What You'll Learn:Why the enrollment cliff is really a gradual demographic shiftHow adult learners are changing the higher ed landscapeWhy trust in higher education matters for enrollment successHow colleges can rethink messaging around value and outcomesWhy the student experience is becoming the next competitive advantageThanks for listening!Connect with GradComm:Instagram: @gradcommunicationsFacebook: @GradCommunicationsLinkedIn: @gradcommSend us a message: GradComm.comHigher Ed Conversations is hosted by Cheryl Broom, CEO of GradComm, a marketing and branding agency specializing in community colleges and public education.

Since entering the NHL in 2017, no team has operated quite like the Vegas Golden Knights. With a "win now" mindset from their inaugural season, the team has traded draft picks and have made whatever moves the rules have allowed in order to be annual contenders.After removing Stanley Cup-winning coach Bruce Cassidy with just eight games left in the regular season, the VGK responded to interim coach John Tortorella to within two wins of the Stanley Cup.And within two days of the Final, Torts was gone and replaced by the Golden Knights AHL affiliate head coach in Henderson, Ryan Craig.So begins the off-season for the Golden Knights. Short on draft picks, salary cap challenged and the search for a new coach comprises the summer laundry list for team President George McPhee and GM Kelly McCrimmon.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #BZZR #NHL #VegasGoldenKnights #JohnTortorella #BruceCassidy #KellyMcCrimmon #GeorgeMcPhee #MitchMarner #JackEichel #PavelDorofeyev #MarkStone #NoahHanafin #AnthonyMantha #AlexPietrangelo #ReillySmith #ColeSmith #ColtonSissons #BrandonSaad #RasmusAndersson #BenHutton #JeremyLauzon #DylanCoghlan #AkiraSchmid #CarterHart #AdinHill #NicDowd #WilliamKarlsson #RyanCraig #UtahMammoth #AnaheimDucks #ColoradoAvalanche #CarolinaHurricanes #DallasStars #MinnesotaWild #WinnipegJets #CalgaryFlames #PhiladelphiaFlyers #WashingtonCapitals #NewYorkRangers #TheAHL.com #HendersonSilverKnights

Dan and Ellen talk with Professor Carlene Hempel at Northeastern and her student Sydney Woogerd. This spring, Carlene brought a team of student journalists to Asheville, North Carolina, for a week-long intensive reporting trip that focused on the devastating aftermath of Hurricane Helene. The result: a digital multimedia investigation called Caught in the Current: Helene Recovery in Asheville and Beyond. Put simply, this is a stunning project, with podcasts, videos, photos and text. There's a great soundtrack. We'll drop a link in the show notes. Carlene has been a journalism professor at Northeastern University for more than 20 years. She specializes in teaching long-form narrative writing as well as creating on-site, pop-up newsrooms domestically and abroad for her courses. Her 2025 reporting class and resulting magazine about the 10-year anniversary of Flint, Michigan's water crisis won two national reporting awards.  Sydney is studying journalism and international affairs at Northeastern University with a focus on multimedia storytelling. She serves as co-photo director for The Avenue Magazine, a student-led fashion publication, where she directs visual strategy and creates editorial content. She has also contributed to The Huntington News and Artistry Magazine as a writer and photographer documenting community stories across Boston. Sydney served as the project's photo editor. Dan has a Quick Take about the recent What Works webinar for local-news publishers, journalists and volunteers. Ellen shares five lessons learned from watching how the projects that were subjects of the book, "What Works in Community News," have evolved.

Most diversion analytics platforms are built to monitor controlled substance activity. That's where the regulatory focus is, and that's where most dashboards direct attention. But what if an important diversion risk is hiding in a place few people review?In this Quick Take on Diversion Insights, Terri explores the often-overlooked world of cancel transactions and why they can represent a significant blind spot in diversion monitoring programs.This episode covers:• Why cancel transactions frequently go unreviewed• How non-controlled substance activity can be linked to diversion schemes• The risk of returning tampered medications to inventory• How non-controlled substances may be substituted for controlled substances• Why bedside clinical observations may not identify these events quickly• The importance of reviewing raw transaction logs, not just dashboard alerts• A real-world case where the warning signs were present in the data but initially overlookedFor diversion specialists, pharmacists, compliance professionals, medication safety teams, and healthcare leaders, this episode highlights an area that deserves greater attention in audit and monitoring strategies.Sometimes the most important clues aren't hidden—they're simply sitting in data that no one is reviewing.More from Rxpert Solutions:https://www.rxpert.solutions/

This week we made the case that AI breaks a fundamental economic law: the bigger it gets, the more expensive it is to run, which is the exact opposite of how transformative technologies are supposed to work. The IPO trio of OpenAI, Anthropic, and SpaceX looks less like the next internet and more like the last big exit for early investors before the whole thing deflates. Then we looked at the manufacturing uptick, which sounds like good news until you realize a lot of it may just be companies stockpiling inventory before prices get even worse.

There was no team with higher expectations entering 2025-26 than the Colorado Avalanche. However, by late May, no club had suffered greater disappointment.The Presidents' Trophy winners wired the field from the outset of the regular season but, after disposing the Kings and Wild in just nine games to start the playoffs, the Avalanche crashed in getting swept in the Western Final by the Vegas Golden Knights.Despite being the oldest team in the NHL, the Avs should remain formidable for the immediate future. However, with no picks until the fourth round of the Draft and other high picks having been dealt away to win now, Joe Sakic has work different from any other GM to keep the team among the NHL's elite.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #BZZR #NHL #SummerCoolers #ColoradoAvalanche #CarolinaHurricanes #LosAngelesKings #MinnesotaWild #VegasGoldenKnights ##QuebecNordiques #NewYorkIslanders #St.LouisBlues #SanJoseSharks #WashingtonCapitals #OttawaSenators #ChicagoBlackhawks #NewYorkRangers #PittsburghPenguins #Presidents'Trophy #JaredBednar #ChrisMacFarland #NathanMacKinnon #CaleMakar #ScottWedgewood #BrandonDuhaime #MackenzieBlackwood #MartinNecas #BrockNelson #MatsZuccarello #GabrielLandeskog #NazemKadri #DevonToews #PatrickRoy #MartinBrodeur #DarcyKuemper #AdinHill #BraydenSchenn #AlexandarGeorgiev #KevinMandolese #JackDrury #MikkoRantanen #TaylorHall #JoelKiviranta #BrentBurns #BrettKulak #JackAchan #NickBlankenberg #ZakarBardakov #HartTrophy #NorrisTrophy

There were few feel-good stories in 2025-26 than the Buffalo Sabres. After 15 long years, the Sabres got themselves back into the post-season winning the Atlantic Division plus the opening round of the playoffs against Boston before falling in Game 7 overtime to Montreal.While it is easy to statistically equate as to why the team escaped the doldrums, the path of the past season was atypical. A slow start and the firing of the GM reversed itself in December with a torrid hot streak that raised the Sabres into the NHL elite.Plenty to build on for 2026-27.

Dan and Ellen talk with Ron Mitchell, publisher and editor of the Bay State Banner. In 2023, Mitchell and Andre Stark, both seasoned television news journalists, purchased the Banner, a newspaper covering the Black community in Boston. The Banner was started in 1965 by Melvin Miller. The print weekly is legendary for covering stories that were ignored by other publications. Stories about the Black and Latino communities in the Boston neighborhoods of Roxbury, Dorchester and Mattapan. Mitchell and Stark are expanding its digital footprint. During his 27 years at WBZ, Mitchell created news coverage focused on racism in elementary school textbooks in 2014, and a series chronicling an 11-year lawsuit that culminated in an $11 million dollar award to a Black firefighter in Brookline. Dan and Ellen also talk with Sanjana Mishra, a Northeastern journalism and criminal justice graduate. She's worked in local news, communications and social media. She took two courses with Dan last semester and somehow lived to tell the tale. She wrote a final paper called "How private equity and corporate ownership are killing local journalism and American democracy," an in-depth examination of how Alden Global Capital and USA Today Co. — known as Gannett until recently — have hollowed out newsrooms in a never-ending quest for higher profits. Ellen has a Quick Take on North Star Stories, a daily radio broadcast on local news carried by AMPERS, a network of 17 community FM stations across Minnesota. It's by community, for community, and it's funded partly by donors and partly by the state. Dan has a Quick Take about the latest on The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, which announced earlier this year that it was shutting down in the face of mounting losses. What's happened since is mostly good — but it comes with a sour aftertaste.

They acquired Quinn Hughes and they proceeded to topple the team they replaced in Minnesota for their first playoff series win in eleven years.However, in the end, the Wild were too beat up in key areas against Colorado to advance beyond the second round.Still, the Minnesota Wild remain one of the more formidable teams in the NHL. As one of the older teams in the circuit, the Wild sit right in the arc of the championship window. However, that combination heightens the urgency to win now.Facing an off-season with eight UFA's, GM Bill Guerin has the core pieces in place to augment in a way that might see his team take at least one more step forward in 2026-27.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #NHLWraparound.com #ShortShifts #NYCentric #CelebritySeries #HallofFameEdition #StanleyCupdate #SummerCoolers #Smith'sPix #NeilSmith #VicMorren #NHL #SpringCleaning #MinnesotaWild #DallasStars #ColoradoAvalanche #NashvillePredators #VancouverCanucks #FloridaPanthers #WinnipegJets #SanJoseSharks #BillGuerin #JohnHynes #QuinnHughes #JoelErikssonEk #JonasBrodin #ZachBogosian #ZachParise #RyanSuter #VladimirTarasenko #NicoSturm #SteveYzerman #KirillKaprizov #ConnorMcDavid #LeonDraidaitl #ZeevBuium #MarcoRossi #LiamOhgren #JesperWallstedt #ScottWedgewood #MattBoldy #RyanHartman #BrockFaber #CaleMakar #GustavNyquist #JeffPetry #NickFoligno #MarcusJohansson #MichaelMcCarron #RobbyFabbri #BobbyBrink #DaemonHunt #FilipGustavsson

This week we dug into the Treasury’s TIC data—the report nobody reads but everybody should—which shows central banks quietly stepping back from U.S. debt while private money fills the gap. That’s a problem when you’re carrying $39 trillion and yields are climbing. Then we looked at what that actually means at the kitchen table: record household debt, credit card rates near 24%, and an inflation measure that doesn’t even count the cost of carrying all that debt.

This week we took a hard look at Canada’s Mark Carney. Competent, well-spoken, yet quietly running a neoliberal playbook. Then we checked Trump’s approval numbers, where even Republicans are starting to feel the gas prices, though 84% are still on board, which is somehow both unsurprising and completely bonkers.
