Tkachuk Brothers Unite in Sunrise + Darren Raddysh!
6/22/202650 min
Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start the week by reacting to the Ottawa Senators' decision to trade Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers. They share their thoughts on the Senators' return, the trend of American players pushing away from Canadian teams, and the pressure on Steve Staios to make another big move. Then, the newest Maple Leafs defenceman, Darren Raddysh (14:45), joins the show to discuss his decision to sign long-term in Toronto and his ties to the city. Later, Nick, Justin and Sam react to the Hockey Hall of Fame's class of 2026, share their thoughts on Raddysh's pricy contract, and break down the rumours around Sergei Bobrovsky, Connor Hellebuyck, Matthew Knies, and Darnell Nurse.
