John Klingberg signs with the Anaheim Ducks, Nazem Kadri and Patrice Bergeron remain unsigned, how the Hockey Canada investigations should impact coverage of upcoming junior tournaments, listener questions, Multiple Choice Madness, and more

First, Ian and guest cohost Julian McKenzie discuss the surprise signing of John Klingberg with the Anaheim Ducks on a 1-year, $7 million contract, how often 1-year deals actually work out, why guys like Nazem Kadri and Patrice Bergeron remain unsigned into August, potential landing spots for PK Subban, and more. Then, the guys talk about TSN broadcaster Gord Miller’s Twitter thread over the weekend explaining why he’s decided to cover upcoming junior tournaments despite the ongoing Hockey Canada sexual assault investigations looming over the proceedings and give their thoughts on how the media should handle situations like this going forward. Plus, listener questions about whether the Anaheim Ducks can compete for a playoff spot next season or not, if there’s a correlation between preseason records and regular season success, and a couple of nice Multiple Choice Madness questions asking if Patrick Marleau is a Hall of Famer or not and what would the guys choose to eat out of the Stanley Cup if given the opportunity.
