Senior NHL Writer for The Athletic, Scott Burnside
Description
This week we welcome on Senior NHL Writer for The Athletic, Scott Burnside, to touch on a number of important topics as we approach the end of a strange NHL season.
Scott breaks down the upcoming playoff scheduling challenges, particularly in regards to the Canadian teams, potential award winners and the awards voting process, as Scott is the former President of the Professional Hockey Writers Association. We also touch on the massive new TV deals the NHL signed with ESPN and Turner and what that means for future exposure of the game.
Finally we talk with wagering expert Kris Abbott on Aaron Rodgers trade rumours and what that could do to NFL futures odds and the Valspar championship featuring Corey Conners!
Catch the show Friday nights just after 6 on CKNX AM920 and CKNX.ca, unless the Leafs play on Friday at 7, in which case we air just after 5:30 leading into pregame at 6:30 . Remember, we air every Leafs pregame and game live on CKNX this year. We also air all Jays games unless they conflict with the Leafs!
