JK joins the show to talk about the Blues season finale, his thoughts on the growth of the young players across this season, why he still has Bolduc as a 3rd-liner going into next season in the long-term, Robert Thomas' jump this season in his overall game, if the Bergeron comparisons are still too lofty, why he's calling Kyrou's season "very good", his ranking as one of the top scorers in the league and the biggest issue being his consistency & a large drop off when he's not playing well.

7:15 - Is the rotation good enough--are the new arms eating enough innings?

7:30 - We know the Blues will have to wait for guys like Snuggerud, Dvorsky and Lindstein to be impact guys. But did the performance of Neighbours, Bolduc, Kessel and Perunovich give you confidence about THEM providing positive impact?

7:45 - TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT

8:00 - Fresh Take: The Cardinals are in Oakland for their final series ever there. Is it a black eye for baseball to have the team playing in Sacramento for three years? And should they expect owner John Fisher to compete?

9:15 - As the Arizona Coyotes move to Salt Lake City, owner Alex Muerello has been given the Coyotes name, the the right of first refusal on the NHL’s 33rd team if he can get an arena arranged. Should, of all leagues, hockey be the team that crashes through the 32 team barrier?

9:30 – With the transfer portal and NIL, will there ever come a point that the NFL would be better off with their own minor leagues rather than the current model?

Kerbs joins the show to break down whether or not this season was a disappointment, why he didn't expect this team to be a playoff squad at the start of the season, why that doesn't matter when you look at how close they were, the biggest takeaway form the season being the growth of Robert Thomas into his role as the blues #1 Center, the importance of moving your prospects forward and building progress through your plan, why "tanking" isn't a reasonable plan for this franchise, the Blackhawks being a scary example for the Blues and the Blues biggest offseason need being some added Pat Maroon-like swagger.
