On this episode, the hosts, Donovan Bailey and Simon Jain get frank with the opiod crisis in sport. Las Vegas Golden Knight's goalie Robin Lehner uncaps the lid on a growing issue of opiates in Hockey and a massive debate erupts across the NHL. Is this the first we are hearing of this? No, in recent years the tell-tale sign of pain killers and sedatives in sports has been trickling out, only to be supressed by the organizations and the leagues themselves. It appears now, across the globe, in multiple sports, we are reaching critical mass, and the story can be contained no longer. Our hosts dissect the issue and look for who should be leading the charge in the fight against it.
