It's the final game of the AHL season - Calder Cup Game 7. Mike and Norm predict the outcome, because really, that's all there's left to do. But for many of the players wearing blue and white there's more at stake than a hockey title.

If Toronto isn't his destination, who might the Leafs look at for an upgrade at Centre? Could another London Knights graduate be an option? It's an interesting take. Mike unloads it in the podcast.
