Real Kyper & Bourne

Former NHLer and current Sportsnet hockey analyst Garry Galley (5:19) joins Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne to discuss the increased amount of interest with international hockey competitions, Ottawa Senators' road to the Stanley Cup Playoffs, Detroit Red Wings sliding out of the race, what's next for the Maple Leafs after not responding to Radko Gudas' knee-on-knee hit on Auston Matthews, and if the NHL should look into protecting their star players more. Then, Nick, Justin and Sam McKee chat about whether changes are needed in the NHL Department of Player Safety, Connor McDavid's recent comments about reviewing the department's process following a hit towards his linemate Leon Draisaitl, and why the league must consider a return to a 1-8 seeded postseason format at the ongoing GM meetings.

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne, and Sam McKee look back on the Toronto Maple Leafs' weekend, where they took three out of four points against the Sabres and Wild. They discuss how the team's energy has shifted since Auston Matthews left the lineup and the fallout from his season-ending injury. Later, they discuss Bo Groulx's chances to make the team next season, the future of the goalie group after Artur Akhtyamov signed his extension, and whether the Leafs should lean into the tank or try to cultivate a winning culture down the stretch.

Nick Kypreos and guest host Gord Stellick are joined by former NHL president, general manager and head coach Doug MacLean (1:31) to discuss Radko Gudas' knee-on-knee collision with Auston Matthews, how Leafs' GM Brad Treliving can rectify the losing season, Detroit Red Wings' slide, why the Edmonton Oilers can't rely on just Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl to help them win a Stanley Cup, how he would rebuild a team through the draft, and which teams could sneak into a post-season spot. Then, Nick, Gord and Sam McKee weigh in on the NHL Global Series shifting to Germany in December for the 2026-27 season, if fans saw the last game with Matthews in a Leafs jersey, and Connor McDavid dropping the gloves against the Dallas Stars.

Nick Kypreos, Gord Stellick and Sam McKee look back on the Toronto Maple Leafs' win over the Anaheim Ducks to snap their losing streak. They discuss Radko Gudas' dirty hit that injured Auston Matthews, the lack of immediate response, and Easton Cowan taking initiative in the third period. Later, they check in on Matthews' status for the rest of the season, debate what an appropriate suspension length for Gudas would be, and discuss whether injuries are the prime reason for Matthews' decline. Finally, they take your calls on the Leafs Line!

Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne are joined by former NHLer and NHL on TNT analyst Eddie Olczyk (7:39) to discuss if the Atlantic Division-leading Buffalo Sabres are the real deal for the Stanley Cup, New York Islanders' trade deadline moves and their playoff outlook with Matthew Schaefer, why the Maple Leafs and Canucks needed to be aggressive at the deadline, and if he has any concerns for the Oilers' post-season run despite their blueline and goaltending struggles. Then, the founder of Sin Bin Vegas, Ken Boehlke (32:42), jumps on to chat about the sliding Golden Knights, Mitch Marner's acclimation with the team, if goaltending is the sole factor for goals against, and why fans haven't ruled out Mark Stone's availability.
