Ian Mendes and Julian McKenzie welcome Katie Strang, the Athletic investigative reporter to discuss the investigation into the sexual assault claim from June of 2018, involving members of the 2018 Canadian junior hockey team and the fact that five unnamed players have finally been asked to surrender to London Ontario police.

Ian and Julian debate the timing of the news that Ryan Smith, the owner of the NBA's ​​Utah Jazz has formally asked the NHL to initiate the expansion process and bring a team to Salt Lake City, and if the NHL really needs to expand so soon again.

Plus, Fluto Shinzawa joins from Boston to talk about the Bruins, who despite limitations on their roster, and the loss of star players, continue to excel, and the guys stick-tap the Edmonton Oilers who extend their winning streak to 14 games.
