All right, welcome in Wednesday afternoon again, and you know what that means.

Jesse Montaigneau, Megan Angley here, DNVR Avalanche podcast.

Megan, it seems like the week just flies by.

I'm always looking forward to our Wednesday shows.

How are you doing this week?

I'm doing really well.

I always look forward to this show, too, and it did feel like it flew by. Yeah, flew by. I know you've got some automotive issues you're dealing with. Things are getting sorted out, hopefully. It's been a slow-moving process. Always, yeah. In ways that benefit me, though, I've just had this rental until I learn more. So I actually think it gets worse once I learn more.

No, okay. All right. Well, so we're fine with this kind of like automotive purgatory right now.

Exactly. We've got a lot to get into. Again, we've been very fortunate this offseason. We have

been very fortunate because we need stuff to talk about on this show. And the NHL, the league in

general, has given us no shortage of that, especially up north with one of the most talked

about teams, really any time of year, any season, whatever's going on. There's always a lot of

news surrounding the Leafs. But Megan, it's pretty warranted this time around. There's a lot

going on there. A lot of kind of unknowns. There's new information changing every day. We talked

about it on Monday, the Brendan Shanahan press conference, really kind of unprecedented in terms of

the way that the NHL and their teams deal with stuff, transparency, things like that.

So we wanted to talk about that, but we figured instead of us continuing to kind of speculate

from however many thousands of miles away, you reached into your bag of contacts here.

And we are joined by, I believe we've got him backstage here, Dave McCarthy, NHL.com, SiriusXM, and

NHL Network correspondent, all in the Toronto area. Dave, we very much appreciate taking

some time out. How are you doing today? It's great to be on with you guys. Thanks for having me.

And Megan, let me just tell you, I feel your pain when it comes to your automotive troubles.
