Jays Figuring it Out + Leafs Looking for a Change The FAN Morning Show

    • Sport

The final hour of The FAN Morning Show takes some time to talk both Blue Jays and Maple Leafs figuring it out. Hosts Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning start with the Jays and what will determine how they approach the trade deadline this year; could they go on a run to make people believe they are contenders? B&B are joined by Sportsnet’s own Ben Nicholson-Smith to say what he is seeing especially out of stars Bo and Vlad Jr. that make it possible the team is on an upward trajectory. They also look at how far out the team would have to be to become "sellers" at the deadline and who would be on the market. Next the morning duo turn their attention to the NHL and bring on former pro, now host of the Dropping the Gloves’ podcast, John Scott. They get John’s outside perspective on the Leafs and how badly change is needed beyond the coach. He weighs in on who and what Toronto needs and just how much a coaching change could impact them. The trio also take time to look around the rest of the Stanley Cup Playoffs including how the Bruins aren’t that big and bad anymore and if the Canucks are just out-toughing the Oilers. Ben and Brent wrap up with some final thoughts on the Leafs' coaching search.
