Matt Marchese and Mike Futa open today's show with a look around the league, before being joined by Rod Brind'Amour (18:42), head coach of the Stanley Cup champion Carolina Hurricanes. He looks back on the moment he knew his team would hoist Lord Stanley's Cup, the philosophy of the group, the health of the roster, and Jordan Staal's Conn Smythe playoff campaign. Rod also takes us back to his iconic Stanley Cup lift and how it compared his first celebration as a player in 2006. After the break, we hear a snippet from Maple Leafs GM John Chayka following this afternoon's trade with the Flyers, before Sportsnet's Luke Fox (51:09) joins to further break down the deal. He explains the thinking behind Toronto moving off Joseph Woll, the impact of the Marlies' run to the Calder Cup, the latest news from the Leafs coaching search, and what else is still to come.
