The Buds Mafia is back. The Leafs pulled off a miracle comeback in Boston, winning 5-4 in OT after being down 3-0—their first time doing that since 1963. Marner went full clutch mode, Stolarz stood on his head, and Matthews… well, let’s just say the so-called goal-scoring god needs to wake up. Oh, and Nylander and Tanev are both banged up—time to panic, or just drink more beer?
With the NHL Trade Deadline days away, we break down the juiciest rumors—why Tampa is terrifying, why Boston might finally be cooked, and whether Boeser or Rantanen could be on the move. Plus, Jimmy Fallon is talking hockey now? What the hell is happening?
We also hand out our post-Four Nations NHL Awards predictions—will McDavid take the Hart? Can anyone stop Stolarz from running away with the Vezina? (Kidding… kind of.) Then, we jump into the NFL Mock Draft, laugh at the Metcalf-to-Green-Bay rumors, and try to figure out what the hell the Ducks were thinking with Ville Husso.
And finally, we wrap things up by breaking down the most anticipated golf tournament of the year… jk, it’s the Cognizant Classic. Our latest PGA draft featured thrilling picks like Shane Lowry and Jordan Spieth (wow), while others crashed harder than our betting records. Who’s looking like a steal, and who’s already in golf purgatory?
And as always, we finish with Penalty Box, Lock of the Week, Bet the Farm, and Play of the Week—where we once again try (and fail) to pick a winner.
Buckle up, because this one’s a ride.
