Carson Briere video goes viral, NHL gets animated with Big City Greens broadcast, NHL Draft Lottery date set

Ian is joined by guest co-host Mark Lazerus talk about the NHL diving into a broadcast for a younger audience with this week's "Big City Greens" animated game, and maybe other ways to draw in kids to the sport. Then, the two discuss the viral video of Carson Briere, son of new Flyers GM Daniel Briere. Next, the NHL Draft Lottery date has been set, and a listener writes in a suggestion on a way to curb tanking.

In "Granger Things", Jesse Granger joins the show to answer Laz's betting question and to discuss the piece he and Russo wrote about nets coming off of their moorings. Then, the QMJHL plans to ban fighting, a dive into the mailbag, and to wrap up, a look back with "This Week in Hockey History".
