The NHL is back, and Donnovan brings on Sportsnet Insider Elliotte Friedman to take a look around the sport as it stands ahead of puck drop on the 2023-24 season. Will NHL salaries ever catch up to the NBA or MLB? When will best-on-best international competition return, whether at the Olympics or a World Cup of Hockey? Afterwards, Donnovan chats with Olympic gold medalist and New Jersey Devils' director of player development Meghan Duggan, who discusses her career and how she gives back to the game. Plus, Pflag Canada's Donny Potts joins to chat about their #ReversetheBan campaign, which aims to rally public support for 2SLGBTQ+ athletes and reverse the cause-related jersey ban across the league.
