If the Canadiens do take action against this misappropriation of their IP, they should ask for both monetary damages and Sebastian Aho. That would solve the team's desperate need for a center.

It's been 6 years since Aho signed the offer sheet with the Habs. Talk about holding a grudge.

Luis Ortiz is 26 years old and making $782,600 this season. He's made $2.2M over his career. He's precisely the player that would be incentivized to gamble on his own sport. It's not the stars; it's the fringe players.

Gambling has become integrated into our sports experience. That together with ease of access to gambling apps, players with limited earning potential like Luis Ortiz, Tucupita Marcano and Jontay Porter represent the greatest existential threat to sports.

Dvorak signing for $5.4M for 1 year is an overpay by the Flyers. Good for him. The Flyers, though, have some explaining to do.

While Bolduc is good get for Habs, the Canadiens are still in serious need of a top 6 forward. Remains to be seen if Hughes & Co. can pull off that miracle.

Zac Bolduc is a nice acquisition for the Habs which are losing forwards. He's physical with some offensive upside. He should in on right side on bottom two lines.

Absolutely love the acquisition of Noah Dobson. The blue line looks great for years to come with Dobson, Hutson, Guhle and Reinbacher.

Shea Weber was great but Carey Price was even better. If Weber was a first ballot hall of famer, than it's reasonable to conclude that Price is one too. Agree or disagree?.

Carey Price isn't retired but is still eligible for the Hockey Hall of Fame. As per the Election Procedures, a player is eligible if he or she hasn't played a professional or international hockey game in 3 years.

The Canadiens swept its season series against the Florida Panthers. So that means the Canadiens are the best team in the league. Yes, that makes perfect sense. Dynasty in the making.

Are the Red Sox a better team after trading Devers? Nope. Terrible trade.

On Offside on TSN Radio, I cover defence's closing arguments. They argued there was no sexual assault; just regret. I take a deep dive on the closings and what we should expect when the Judge issues her decision on Thursday July 24.

How long before Habs fans are totally obsessed with William Karlsson? At the moment, I'm just gently preoccupied. Wonder if the Canadiens are on his no trade list. That seems like an important first question.

On Offside on TSN Radio, I provide the latest on the World Juniors sexual assault trial. I break down the legal strategies, the evidence, including Carter Hart's testimony and where this is likely headed as closing arguments loom. Guilty or not guilty?
