The Chayka-Sundin Duo & NHL Draft Lottery Lookahead with Gord Stellick

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open the second hour by welcoming Gord Stellick, former Maple Leafs GM and friend of the show! They discuss Toronto's new front office, the team’s direction and how Mats Sundin fits into the equation. They also touch on John Chayka’s second chance, how his past experience and age may influence his approach, and lessons from Stellick’s own time as a young GM. The conversation wraps with thoughts on the importance of the draft lottery for the Leafs’ future. After the break (28:00), Ben and Brent examine the odds of the Leafs keeping their first-round pick and run their own mock lottery! They also look at the overall strength of the draft, whether a high pick could contribute immediately, the team’s biggest needs particularly on defence, and the speculation surrounding Auston Matthews’ future.
