    Jays Defeat Braves, Leafs ALMOST Traded Knies, and World Cup Updates ft. Brooks Laich

    The Toronto Maple Leafs nearly pulled off one of the biggest trades of the NHL season, and it involved one of their most important young players. On today's episode of Off the Roster, Dan Riccio, Lindsay Dunn, and Cabbie Richards react to the stunning report from friend of the show David Pagnotta that the Leafs had a trade in place with the Montreal Canadiens at the deadline that would have sent Matthew Knies to Montreal in exchange for top prospect Alexander Zharovsky and two first-round picks. The crew breaks down what the deal would have meant for both franchises, why Toronto ultimately held onto Knies, and how differently the Leafs' future could look today. The conversation then shifts to the Toronto Blue Jays as they continue their series against the Atlanta Braves, before the panel reacts to Game 2 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Carolina Hurricanes and Vegas Golden Knights and discusses the biggest storylines emerging from the championship series. They also tee up Game 2 of the NBA Finals between the New York Knicks and San Antonio Spurs and what each team needs to do moving forward. Later, former NHL forward Brooks Laich joins the show to reflect on his NHL career, share his thoughts on the Stanley Cup Playoffs, and discuss his exciting new business venture, World Playground.
