NHL-Style Olympics, Curling Controversy & Jays Trade

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open the show on Family Day with a quick nod to the holiday, before jumping straight into how unstoppable Team Canada’s men’s hockey team has looked through the group stage. The boys compare it to past Olympic runs and explain why this version feels different. They also touch on Tom Wilson’s fight and a wider debate about how close the tournament has moved toward an NHL style product, before running through how the quarterfinal bracket and qualifying round could shake out. They wrap by zooming out to the broader Olympic experience, including the curling controversy and trash talk, plus a quick nod to Canada getting its first Gold courtesy of Mikaël Kingsbury. To close the hour, they pivot to the Blue Jays’ trade for Jesús Sánchez and debate if he can a real everyday factor and how much of the move is a bet on loud contact and power.
