Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill tee up Game 82 as the Toronto Maple Leafs close out a brutal, disappointing season with a visit to Ottawa. With plenty of uncertainty surrounding the organization, the guys dive into what could potentially be Craig Berube’s final game behind the bench—and possibly Morgan Rielly’s last game in blue and white as well. It’s also the end of an era in the broadcast booth, as legendary voice Joe Bowen is set to call the final game of his iconic career.

Plus, Nick & Jay catch up with Bo Groulx to discuss his brief NHL call-up, the emotion of returning to the league, and the upcoming Calder Cup Playoffs.

Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill caught up with Bo Groulx for an in-depth conversation as the Marlies gear up for the playoffs. Groulx kicks things off with a status check on the team before reflecting on his emotional NHL call-up earlier this season — including who he called first and what the moment meant after nearly 700 days between games.

He looks back on his 13-game stint with the Leafs, what clicked during that stretch, and why he felt he was able to find success. Groulx also opens up about being sent back down for roster management reasons, sharing how the organization handled the conversation and his mindset moving forward.

The discussion also touches on Easton Cowan’s expected arrival for the Marlies’ playoff run, as well as the growth of goaltenders Dennis Hildeby and Artur Akhtyamov. Groulx reflects on his relationship with his father, Benoit, and the impact he’s had on his career, plus details from the team’s mentors trip and how things left off with the Leafs.
