Former Leafs prospect netminder Justin Pogge joined Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to take a stroll down memory lane.Pogge caught us up on life after playing, including his current role as goalie coach for the AHL's Abbotsford Canucks, and shared the biggest lessons from his career that now shape his coaching philosophy. He reflected on a true full-circle moment serving as a goalie coach for Canada's World Junior team, two decades after starring for the country at the same tournament.The conversation also turned to Toronto's crease. Pogge weighed in on Joseph Woll, explained why he's high on Dennis Hildeby, and discussed his belief in big goaltenders and the value of net coverage and surface area.Finally, Pogge addressed the elephant in the room: his connection to Tuukka Rask and the infamous trade that sent Rask to Boston for Andrew Raycroft, with Pogge anointed as Toronto's goalie of the future. He opened up on the behind-the-scenes pressure of being “the guy” the Leafs kept, and what it was like navigating those expectations as Rask went on to a sensational NHL career.#LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake

In June 2018, following a Hockey Canada gala in London, Ontario, a young woman alleged she was sexually assaulted by members of Canada's gold medal winning World Junior hockey team. The case was investigated and closed without charges, and the public remained unaware for years. That changed in 2022, when a civil lawsuit and quiet settlement from the sport's regulating body Hockey Canada exposed the allegations. The fallout triggered parliamentary hearings, sponsor withdrawals, leadership resignations, and a reopened criminal investigation that culminated in a high profile trial against five of the men involved, all now NHL players. In this episode, I'm joined by Kristi Lee, host of Canadian True Crime, to walk through the full timeline of the Hockey Canada sexual assault scandal and examine what it reveals about accountability, power, and trust in Canadian sport.
