NHLer Corey Perry’s misconduct firing & Mark Cuban sells the NBA’s Mavs

November 30, 2023

Happy December Eve!

Content warning: This episode contains brief mention of sexual assault.

Today’s episode of The GIST of It is a deal and no deal duo with co-hosts Ellen Hyslop and Steph Rotz taking on the latest headlines from men’s sports.

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.
