Ryan Reynolds wants to buy the Ottawa Senators?, who gets a share of the "blame pie" in Toronto, and New Jersey Devils and Buffalo Sabres are making noise in the East

On a new Thursday Show with Ian and Sean, we have a birthday in the house. Then, Ian and Sean discuss the Toronto Maple Leafs, Sean's piece this week, and who gets pieces of the "blame pie" for the team's rough start to the season. Next, the Ottawa Senators are up for sale, Ryan Reynolds is reportedly interested, and Ian asks for some related crowdsourcing help from the listeners. Also, the New Jersey Devils and Buffalo Sabres are both off to strong starts, is there any scenario where both teams could make the postseason?

To wrap up, digging into penalty-free NHL games in the mailbag, a look back with "This Week in Hockey History", and more.
