Tall Can Audio - A Pint Of Canadian Sports Talk episodes

August 01, 2021 TCA Ep861: Ray Ferraro Of TSN & ESPN Talks NHL Free Agency, The Future Of The Leafs, His Broadcasting Career And More.
Great big show today as Matt is joined by the best hockey analyst in the business - Ray Ferraro of TSN and ESPN.
If you'd like to support TCA and help us to continue to land great guests like this we'd love it if you'd take a moment to leave a rating and a review on your podcast app. It only takes a second and helps other people discover the show.
Over the last couple weeks the hockey world absolutely blew up with news as we had NHL Free Agency, the Entry Draft and the Seattle Kraken Expansion Draft so what better time to speak to Ray Ferraro about just what's gone down.
We ask him about his move to ESPN and how it was decided he'd continue to work the World Juniors and Toronto Maple Leafs broadcasts for TSN, whether being married to a Seattle Kraken scout has helped him land any inside information, what this season was like for a broadcaster calling games off the monitor, whether the salary cap is slowly turning fans against players based more on what they're paid than on their talent, whether Kyle Dubas is making the right decision in sticking with the Big 4 in Toronto and tons more.
We were thrilled Ray made some time to rejoin the Tall Can Audio podcast and we think you'll really enjoy today's show.
