Ailish Forfar and Jesse Fuchs kick off the Thursday show by welcoming Associated Press writer Tim Reynolds from Cortina (1:23). Tim shares the vibe ahead of Friday's opening ceremonies before giving his take on a quieter trade deadline around the NBA, why Giannis Antetokounmpo talks fizzled, the Raptors' minor moves, and why teams were hesitant to swing for Ja Morant. Next, the Athletic's Shayna Goldman stops by (26:50) to run through some hockey headlines on the final night ahead of the NHL's Olympic break, including Team Canada swapping Seth Jarvis in for the injured Brayden Point, darkhorse medal threats in Milan, and Leon Draisaitl's postgame rant after the Oilers' third straight loss. Finally, Raptors radio analyst Paul Jones (50:15) discusses the Raptors' outlook in the Eastern Conference after the trade deadline.
