Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start the second hour with the news that Kirby Dach will miss significant time for the Canadiens with a lower-body injury, and the guys share stories of their own ACL and MCL injuries. They are joined by Sportsnet columnist Eric Francis (9:57), who discusses the fresh feeling in Calgary with new coaching and management, the importance of Jacob Markström having a bounce-back season and his early thoughts on the top teams of the Western Conference. The guys close with some news and notes, the Canucks having the top-end talent to be competitive, trade requests in the NHL vs. the NBA and Sam's issue with Connor Bedard's jersey number.
