Happy Canada Day! Today's special episode would have been completely dedicated to Canadian hockey achievements if it were not for all the news coming out of the NHL this week. To kick off the episode, it was Cack's birthday! He fills us in on how he spent the day and of course, he had a hockey card draft with around 300 cards. He shows the boys his favourite, as well as a relic from the ‘91-‘92 season! This year's Hockey Hall of Fame class was a good one. However, there were a few blemishes. Jarome Iginla, no doubt a first-ballot Hall of Famer. Marian Hossa? Maybe. Doug Wilson, about time. Kim St. Pierre, first female goalie inducted, yup. Ken Holland, I guess? Kevin Lowe? There were a few that think maybe and there are many that say no. Find out what the guys had to say on that controversial pick! Speaking of controversy, the NHL Draft Lottery took place and being on brand with the National Hockey League, of course it ends with a placeholder team securing the number one overall pick. But don't worry though, Gary Bettman reads The New York Times. 26 NHL players (so far) have tested positive for COVID-19. Hub Cities are still being debated. The NHLPA and NHL might now want to cancel their plans to return because of the CBA...oh boy, talk about a spicy meatball! Then the guys finally get around to their favourite Canadian hockey moments. From the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, many World Junior moments, to the 1972 Summit Series and 1987 Canada Cup, the boys relive it all and Mikey and the Cack FaceOff in a game of FaceUp! Some major announcements to end the episode off. An interview with former Kitchener Ranger and Captain, Ben Fanelli and the introduction of 'Listener of the Month' where YOU can join US in some puck talk! Get pucks deep and have a Happy Canada D’EH!
