First, the gals dig into the news that the Chicago Blackhawks fired NHLer Corey Perry for “unacceptable conduct,” a somewhat surprising move from a team with a history of questionable ethics.

Then after the break, El and Steph chat through a massive NBA deal: owner Mark Cuban is selling the Dallas Mavericks to casino queen Miriam Adelson, netting a multi-billion dollar profit in the process. Sharks gonna shark.
