TSN1040’s Colin Miller says it’s keep for the Whitecaps to prepare properly, not get complacent as they face a Galaxy side that is struggling, losing five of their last six games. Colin says the Caps need to play with the confidence we saw against the LAFC.

Bill Hillgrove says Chase Claypool first caught his eye with his special teams play & his willingness to go down field to make a tackle & a rookie that does that shows he’ll do anything to help the team win. Bill adds that Claypool has captured the hearts of Steelers Nation.

TSN’s Dave Naylor says there hadn’t been any rumblings around the league that a change was coming with the Lions organization. Dave says it’s not critical right now for the Lions to name a new GM considering the state of the league at the moment.

TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button says that the frustration that Canucks fans felt when free agency opened was quelled when Jim Benning landed Nate Schmidt from Vegas via a trade. Button also thinks that defenceman Brogan Rafferty is ready to make the next step and that Rafferty can contribute now for the Canucks.
