Ben and Blake start with a look back at the Raptors' win last night and what has been an incredible start for Jakob Poeltl since returning to the team. Then, over to the Leafs, the doubt that continues to follow Matt Murray and a new stat highlights an older player – Mark Giordano, who is just 3 blocked shots away from the NHL career record. Later, a visit from Dan Szymborski from FanGraphs who just released his Top 100 prospects and the Jays have 3 in the top 27 (28:25). Afterwards, Gord Stellick from Scotiabank Arena just ahead of Leafs/Wild with the NHL trade deadline exactly one week away from today (49:36). He answers where we will see O’Reilly play and if Dubas has already traded this many picks, why not just empty the tank and sell it all? Ben and Blake close by reacting to the first games using a pitch clock and why the NBA All-Star Game was poor in ratings, down 29% from a year ago.
