🚨Ask Ray & Dregs Anything!🚨 Trades, coaches, injuries, Olympics... if you're got a burning hockey question, drop it in the comments below or email it to rayanddregspodcast@gmail.com Your query could be answered by @rayferraro21 and @DarrenDreger in our next episode! Proudly presented by @TimHortons

@SamAMcKee Dakota Mermis has been on LtiR since late Nov/early Dec and the guy who knee on kneed him didn’t get a penalty. If it’s a code of conduct issue what does that have to do with Parros? Should be whoever fines coaches and managers not Player safety

I thought Nylander flipping the bird was bush league and unprofessional, but this is absurd. This league thinks this is more dangerous than Brad Marchand braining Matheson, got it.

@SamAMcKee As annoying as this is for us fans the one I really feel for is @Bonsie1951 This is his retirement send off.

This is a depressing watch, gang.

@RealKyper @jtbourne @SamAMcKee @FAN590 Wishing you all long drives and short putts until you’re back.

Wow! 4 yrs already. I can’t thank all of you enough who have watched, listened/downloaded. You’ve helped us become a top rated hockey show and I couldn’t be more proud to be working with @jtbourne + @SamAMcKee Stay safe and have a great summer #RealKyperandBourne @FAN590

@TSNBobMcKenzie @FriedgeHNIC My birthday is July 1 and I celebrate Christmas at the appointed time. You have been part of my family celebrations for the last 40 years. I wish you the very best in your retirement and the same to Cyndie as she has earned it!!

The trade is one for none. Which is to say I’m exchanging my semi-retired TSN life of the last five years — doing the World Junior Championships, NHL Draft Rankings, a handful of Toronto Maple Leaf broadcasts, TradeCentre and Free Agent Frenzy — for a fully-retired life of doing absolutely nothing. Well, nothing work related anyway. Today’s Free Agent Frenzy is the last working day in a 48-year professional career that included stops at The Sault Star, The Globe and Mail, The Hockey News (twice), The Toronto Star, TSN, ESPN and NBC, amongst others. It’s been quite a ride. I’ll be 69 years old in August. I decided a few months ago it’s as nice a time as any to call it a career with the expiry of my current contract. If I had been so inclined to continue doing the World Juniors and draft rankings etc. at TSN, the opportunity was certainly there for me to do so. And I’m so grateful to TSN for that. Honestly, though, I am looking forward to waking up on Christmas morning this year and NOT flying to Minneapolis-St. Paul for the World Juniors. I’m also looking forward to doing more travelling with my wife Cindy; having more time to give my sons Mike and Shawn unwanted (and unneeded) advice; playing even more golf than I am now; and having my two wonderful grandchildren Blake and Gunnar running my show on a full-time basis. After almost 50 years in the business, there are far too many people to thank individually, so I won’t even try to name any lest I leave some out. Just know that I’ve been blessed to work for, work with and work against so many great people who gave me boundless opportunity, incredible support and intense motivation. The nearly five decades have gone by in the blink of an eye. I certainly never set out to be the TSN Hockey Insider. It never occurred to me that I would work in television. All I wanted to be when I grew up was a hockey writer, to have a “job” to watch, write and talk about the game. You know, tell a few stories and try to capture the spirit of the thing. Mission accomplished, I guess. I couldn’t say goodbye now without a special thanks to everyone at TSN, past and present. I first started showing up on the network in or around 1986-87. In the 1990s, I was working full-time hours at TSN but still had a full time newspaper job, too. Since 2000, 25 years ago, TSN has been my primary professional home. It’s been a very special place on so many levels. The best part of TSN has always been the people. The best people doing the best work. What an honour to be one small part of the unsurpassed excellence that is TSN. Every time I’ve walked out of Studio Six at the end of Free Agent Frenzy on July 1, I’ve said to myself: “It doesn’t get any better than that.” And it doesn’t. That’s especially true on this Canada Day because I’m so very proud to be a Canadian. 🇨🇦 I’m a very lucky guy. I owe the game of hockey, and all the people within it — the players, coaches, managers, executives, scouts, agents et al — so much; I owe my family and friends even more.  Finally, thank you to anyone who has ever read, watched or listened to any of my work in any form at any outlet over the last 48 years. It’s been a privilege to share some information with you all, and try to have a few laughs along the way on social media or whatever they’re calling it these days. I’ve cherished it all. Fully Completely. ✌️and 💕  -30-

@TSN_Sports Yes with @16DarcyTucker on the back of it. Disgrace that they gave MM 16 to start with.

Should Marner’s No. 16 be retired if he leaves Toronto? WATCH: youtu.be/RBI9ZzG9m24

@statusisdown MyBell said try later in Etobicoke #belldown

The only time in history that NATO came to the aid of a member was for the United States.

Just a reminder my Canadian friends. Many spring projects. Home Depot is 100% American owned. The owner is Bernard Marcus is a huge Trump supporter. Home hardware is 100% Canadian owned. Pass the word repost.

@Chasenpucks39 @SitemanCenter 💪🏻🙏🏼

I hesitated to say anything, but so many people are sending me notes so here goes . Yes I have a Round 2 with this punk called leukemia. With the support of these amazing Doctors @SitemanCenter and all my friends prayers and support, we are hoping for a similar outcome as Round 1. I am ready to fight again and have a brother with 100% bone marrow match. I truly am grateful for everyone reaching out. I got this.

@jessicahadwin This is why we need an unlike button on twitter.

A great reminder that golf and social media golf is a bubble….I emailed Moet about our upcoming charity auction and asked if they would consider donating a bottle of champagne to include with our framed/signed tackle photo and told them the meaning behind it and this was the reply 😂😂😂

@kelsieswrites 💔

One year ago you stopped breathing. One year ago I sat at your bedside with your warm hand pressed to my face, terrified I would one day forget how your skin felt against mine. How I long for the comfort, the safety, of your touch. You were my home, love. You will always be.

@SamAMcKee What did Doug do to his thumb?

It's off the rails Friday on Real Kyper & Bourne today. Our last block is dedicated to listener questions and takes...let me have 'em and I'll try to read it on air!
