The guys get into the news of the twins possibly being the final decision makers, and how that changes the dynamic in the front office going forward. The guys debate whether organizational change can really happen when the hires have already worked for the team, and whether the culture will be different. Also, how does this affect their ability to retain Manny Malhotra as a coach? Bruins reporter Jimmy Murphy of RG media joins the guys to try to figure out the Evan Gold side of the Canucks management story. Jimmy talks about Gold's reputation with the B's and what this close call will mean for his future in Boston. Then it's TSN's Frank Corrado with his reaction to the Canucks management changes and 2 former teammates taking over. Frank talks about the pros and cons of staying in-house for the hires and whether he thinks true change can come from all of this, plus, the effects on the coaching position and Manny Malhotra staying with the Canucks. He also gives us his scouting report as a couple of Canucks prospects are potentially bound for the Memorial Cup. Matt and Blake finish up with the lowdown on the Whitecaps news amidst the high level meetings today and a gameday in Dallas. They look at the BC Lions roster taking shape in Kamloops, and the full baseball update from the Jays, C's and M's!Thank you to our great sponsors:@bet365: It's never ordinary!
