JD reacts to the action-packed weekend of sports, including Canada's men's soccer team victory over the Americans (00:00). JD then moves onto the Maple Leafs' lowly loss to the Nashville Predators (9:00) and brings on James Mirtle, senior NHL writer at The Athletic, to analyze Joseph Woll against Anthony Stolarz, why Craig Berube is demoting Scott Laughton, Morgan Reilly's free-market value, and Matthew Knies' contract extension numbers. JD then touches on some of the potential lottery picks he watched in college basketball over the weekend (46:30). Sportsnet's Ben Nicholson-Smith gets into Alejandro Kirk's contract extension, Mark Shapiro's optimism about extending Vladimir Guerrero Jr., the biggest surprises from the final roster decisions, Alan Roden's opportunity and Max Scherzer's thumb injury (54:00).
