Just 2 cents…but many contracts have morality clauses and I wouldn’t be surprised if there is “information that you get from doing your job” clauses.

This isn’t “a manager told me that there are likely to be a few surprises at the top of the draft…”. This is literally inside information about who is going where.

Anyone who has done finance work knows exactly about knowing something and agreeing that you won’t use that information for you or your friend’s financial gain. Whether it has material impact or value is irrelevant.

I’m sorry he lost his job.

Flames fan, SAIT alumnus, and all around awesome guy, Kyle Bukauskas, is the new co-host of 32 Thoughts. Congrats, Kyle!

Surprising choice going with Kyle Bukkakes. Almost equally as surprising to learn he is a Flames fan as well.

I'm shocked we have one of ours in the media on such a big platform! Looking forward to Kyle occasionally showing some bias to the Flames and none of us having any issue with that at all!

Thats just it. He won't because he isn't one of those dip#### paid for Oiler honks.

Yeah Oiler fans in the media are a whole different level for sure. I was talking more about people crying all the time too about bias towards the Leafs from personalities from Ontario, when from what I have seen, they are actually even more hard on the Leafs than other Canadian teams.

That's hardly "some kid out of SAIT".

I will miss Jeff, but Kyle is more than a capable replacement.

He sounds so much like a young Scott Oake with the cadence of his voice.

Maybe Jeff can sign up here and leak information in gif form?

I wonder if Kyle retains his current role as essentially the in-arena host of all Toronto games? He does a good job and I imagine he'd want to keep that role. Will be busy for him though with both!

Already seeing the benefits of having a Flames fan in the seat, in Kyle. On today's podcast, Friedman gave his thoughts on the Flames at this point and at what could have been and sounded like the end of the Flames update, Kyle brought up the new arena as almost an additional thing before moving on, which Elliotte then spoke to as well. Good stuff!
