The FAN Morning Show Sportsnet

The FAN Morning Show’s final hour hosted by Brent Gunning and Daniela Franceschi kicks off with basketball talk as the pair discuss Game 4 tonight in the NBA Finals, before looking ahead to the summer for Canada Basketball; the excitement and chances for them at the 2024 Paris Olympics Games. They continue the conversation with the man leading the program, Jordi Fernández. He talks about taking on the Brooklyn Nets’ job and why remaining Canada’s head coach was important to him, as well as getting acclimated to the country and the welcome he has felt since taking the gig. The hosts get his take on expectations for the summer ahead starting with their training camp in two weeks; what he expects the roster to look like and how nice it is to have some of the options he does. At the back end of this hour, Brent and Daniele are joined by friend of the show, SN 590’s own Sam McKee (31:42). The trio dive into their Canadian pride, the feeling of seeing their country’s teams compete at top levels and their excitement for the upcoming Olympics and Copa América. To wrap up this week, the guys chat about U.S Open, their belief in Rory McIlroy to win another major and a surprisingly disappointing first round for Scottie Scheffler.

Brent Gunning joined by guest host Daniele Franceschi kicks off The FAN Morning Show straight into another frustrating loss for the Edmonton Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final.

The final hour of The FAN Morning Show today revisits Mitch Marner's current situation with the Maple Leafs. Hosts Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning are joined early in the hour by Hockey Hall of Famer, Adam Oates, to get his thoughts on the microscope Mitch was under in the playoffs and if the criticisms of him were fair. The trio also look at how power play failures can cost a team in the postseason, the quick adjustments coaches need to make to have success, and what an off-season looks like for a player trying to hone their skills, before offering some insight on what his former teammate Craig Berube brings to the Blue and White. In the back half of the hour, Sports Emmy Award winner and MLB Network analyst, Adnan Virk stops by to share his take on the American League East (27:10). They discuss the ripple effects on the Blue Jays' lack of run production, the strength of teams like the Orioles and Yankees, if Juan Soto will wear pinstripes for the rest of his career and how fun the duo of him and Aaron Judge is to watch. Sorry, Jays fans.
