Don Waddell, General Manager and President of Hockey Operations with the Blue Jackets, joins Matt Marchese and Mike Futa! Don reflects his club's 2024-25 season and promising future ahead, Mathieu Olivier's development into more than a physical force, his willingness to offer sheet players, and Kirill Marchenko's breakout year in Columbus. Later on, Sportsnet's Jason Bukala (18:40) stops by the studio to swap some stories with the boys. Bukes and Futes recount the questions that matter during the draft process, the weirdest moments from their time in draft rooms, and instances of players intentionally tanking an interview. Jason sticks around for the final segment of the week to sort through this week's "Futa Five" with Matt and Mike (51:57)!
