Sekeres & Price Show

As the Canucks weight their options at the draft, Matt and Blake wonder if there's room, or the need, for the rookies to play this season. Both Cootes and the 3rd overall pick will get consideration but the guys debate whether a player's college commitment, or AHL play, is more important. The boys talk about the juxtoposition of the Manny Malhotra's hiring vs the Oilers' pursuit of Mike Babcock. TSN's Frank Corrado stops by with some personal stories of playing for Babcock's Leafs teams and how it affected his career. Frank talks about the differences between the "coach" and the "person", and why the Oilers would even consider going down this road. Frank also has thoughts on the Canucks' possible interest in Brendan Gallagher, both the coast of acquisition and the fit inside the room. Then it's PuckPedia founder Hart Levine with an indepth chat on the summer ahead in the NHL. He talks about the oodles of cap space available and a limited UFA list, and Hart looks at the shifting size of contracts and the quantity of moves that is likely ahead. Then Matt and Blake dive into the rest of the sporting world, including an alarming absence at the Canadian World Cup camp, with only 2 days left before the opener. The guys look at a crazy ending to the Jays game yesterday, some great groups to watch over the opening two days of the Canadian Open, and the BC Lions get that much closer to their 2026 season opener!

Plus, with Dylan Larkin's trade request official, is there a way that EP40 gets involved in a possible summer of trades. Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects joins the show with his experiences from the NHL combine and how that's affected his view of what happens on draft day. Cam shares his movers and shakers in the draft rankings, which teams may be using smokescreens to throw people off the scent, and which players impressed the most.
