Ailish Forfar and Justin Cuthbert kick things off with Sportsnet’s Luke Fox to break down the Leafs' upcoming announcement where they will name Auston Matthews their next captain. He discusses the timing of the decision to strip Tavares of the ‘C’, whether this move signifies an end of the ‘core four’ mentality and Matthews’ leadership style. Aaron Bronsteter (27:00) joins the show to tee up season 8 of Dana White’s Contender Series debuting tonight on Sportsnet. Then, he sets the stage for UFC 305 this weekend, Israel Adesanya’s importance to the UFC, and much more. Finally, Ailish and Justin discuss the St. Louis Blues offer sheets to Oilers' RFAs Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway.
