Okay, let's get into the morning guest list. It's a Duik morning drive brought to you by the Duik Auto Group. It begins at 630 this morning. Greg Wyshynski is going to join the program from ESPN. He's got a great piece up on ESPN.com right now about Rod Brindamore, the jock, and Eric Tulsky, the nerd. How the two newly minted Stanley Cup champions, seemingly opposites, teamed up
to win Lord Stanley's mug with the Carolina Hurricanes. We'll talk to Wish about all that and more at 6.30. 7 o'clock, Brandon Batchelor is going to join the program. Play-by-play voice of the Vancouver Canucks on Sportsnet 650. We are officially into the offseason, just 10 days away from the start of the NHL entry draft, a vitally important time for the Canucks.
We'll talk about it with Batch at 7 o'clock. 7.30, Ryan Rigmaiden, the general manager of the BC Lions, will join the program. As mentioned yesterday, the Leos lost a nail biter in their season opener. 31-27 to the Rough Riders in Saskatchewan. We'll talk to Ryan about that. Set up this Friday's game in Hamilton. Laddie, they're going to the Hammer. Very exciting. It's a great spot.
I can't lie, you guys. What do you want me to do here?
You really sold it. Really sold it.
What are you trying to make me do here?
Welcome to Hamilton. It's a great spot.
A lot of waterfalls. It's like, you know how some tourism slogans have an exclamation point at the end? It's a great spot. We're not lying. It's a great spot with a period at the end of it. Ryan Rigman is going to join us at 7.30. Finally, at 8 o'clock, David Edgar is going to join the program. You may remember him capped nearly 50 times for Canada once wore the captain's armband.

Chapter 3: How did Rod Brindamore and Eric Tulsky team up for the Stanley Cup?
Weirdly enough, it happened on the exact same day in history, June 15th. But every team that played yesterday from Cape Verde all the way to New Zealand walked away with a single point yesterday. What was an entertaining day at the World Cup? But not a win, not a loss. All four ties.
Well, there were some compelling stories. And like you said, some entertaining games. Iran, New Zealand was maybe... the match of the world cup so far. I hope it doesn't remain the match of the world cup, but so far I think, I mean, it was pretty entertaining. Very entertaining.
I didn't, I didn't think much of New Zealand's chances and, uh, they look pretty good, scored some nice goals and got a two, two draw, um, in Los Angeles where it was very pro Iran. Um, a lot of people probably that had come over at some point to North America from Iran. Um,
Chapter 4: What insights does Greg Wyshynski provide about the Carolina Hurricanes' strategies?
But so they draw 2-2 and then the most, maybe the biggest story was Spain not winning the
Truly an incredible result, one of the most shocking results in a round play, and obviously this is the kind of thing that you get when you expand the field to 48. Cape Verde, Cabo Verde, however you want to call it, it's all good at this time of the morning. In their first ever World Cup, one of the smallest nations to ever participate in a World Cup, defended like their lives were on the line.
One of the most valiant defensive efforts I've seen at this stage. A nil-nil draw with powerhouses, Spain. Now, obviously, a big story for Spain was the inability to find the back of the net and the fact that Lamin Yamal did not feature in the starting 11. He did come on as a substitute late in the match. Didn't really make a huge impact in the matches.
He's still returning from injury, but this was...
Chapter 5: What are the upcoming challenges for the Vancouver Canucks?
A lot of fun to watch when, you know, you get a lot of people that say, well, nil, nil draw. How much entertainment could there be to see the Cape Verde supporters and all of the players? celebrate at the end for the accomplishment that they were able to pull off. I was watching, especially in the second half, their commitment and resilience defensively.
We're talking about blocking shots with every bit of their body, not including their arms, of course, and then just trying to ice the puck as much as possible to give themselves 10 seconds of relief from this constant wave of Spanish pressure.
You know what it reminded me of? The Whitecaps against LAFC.
Oh, when they were down to nine men. Yeah, very good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Chapter 6: How is the offseason shaping up for NHL teams?
Very good compact.
I mean, I don't think Spain hit the crossbar three times in ten seconds or whatever.
They did not.
But it is sometimes compelling to watch a team that is clearly the underdogs. They were under siege. Under siege, just...
trying to get a result out of it and they did so congratulations to them doesn't really mean anything for spain i don't think um you know there might be a little bit of concern but didn't argentina lose their first match at the last world cup and they went to saudi arabia and they went on to win um speaking of saudi arabia they drew uruguay
Has South America kind of, are they off to a bit of a tough start? Glad you mentioned it. Have any of the South American teams won so far? Zero. Right. I mean, it's not like they've played a ton of games.
Well, four of the six have played.
Yeah. Brazil drew Morocco.
Which was a surprising draw.

Chapter 7: What are the implications of Mike Babcock's potential hiring by the Oilers?
Therefore, I think Messi, because he's so iconic, would probably be the most important and have the potential to go far in this tournament.
Okay. Canada's got a big game coming up with Qatar in Vancouver at BC Place. What's it called? Vancouver Stadium? Something like that?
Yeah. What are they calling it? BMO was Toronto Stadium.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
They take away the naming rights for the purposes of the FIFA World Cup.
Yeah, they take away BC Place.
You can call it Michelob Place or Coca-Cola Place.
Michelob Ultra. Ultra. My friend. Okay, so what's going on with Alfonso Davies? He's probably not going to play against Qatar, is he?
So, the Whitecaps. The Canadian men's national team was practicing out at the Whitecaps facility out at UBC on Monday, and Alfonso Davies was the only player on the Canadian men's national team still in return to play protocol. Every other member of the team, including Moise Bombido, participated in full training. Now, if you want to get down to the real nitty-gritty of this,

Chapter 8: What are the expectations for the NHL draft and upcoming trades?
Either a trade that we haven't even talked about comes up or nobody gets traded. But there are some names that, I mean, Dylan Larkin starts with Dylan Larkin because he has requested a trade. And it does feel like there's no coming back from that trade request. I'm with you on that.
You know, it kind of feels like Detroit, you know, some of the reporting has been, well, you know, they're hoping that he gives some more teams that he could be traded to, which. isn't the same as, well, we're not trading him. But, you know, we'll see how Steve Iserman reacts to that trade request and also what the Red Wings target or get in that trade.
Are they going to have to rebuild again or at least go back a few steps in their rebuild? There's a couple veteran defensemen that I'm going to be really interested to see if they move. Darnell Nurse... and Morgan Riley out of Edmonton and Toronto, respectively. Darnell Nurse has been kind of the lead guy lately in terms of the news.
It sounds like the Oilers have been trying to trade him for a while. He's got a tough contract for them. So we'll see on that. A couple goalies. Jordan Binnington. I saw some speculation the other day that Binnington could go to Florida, which makes sense because Bobrowski's probably not going to be back there. I was going to say, it makes sense because he's got Florida man vibes.
Right. Yeah. It just fits.
I mean, we wondered when some things were going on with Connor Hellebuck, we were like, ooh.
I was going to say, so if Florida doesn't land Hellebuck, they just pivot and go straight to Binnington?
Yeah. They're like, we'll get the silver medal guy.
Yeah.
