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.
