81: The McKenna Effect: What It Means for the CHL with Dan MacKenzie & Glenn Healy on the NHL’s New CBA and What It Means for Alumni Association.

Following Gavin McKenna’s high-profile commitment to Penn State, John Shannon welcomes CHL President Dan MacKenzie to discuss what the decision could mean for the future of junior hockey in Canada. The two explore the potential ripple effect of McKenna’s move—dubbed the “McKenna Effect”—and how it may reshape player development and league dynamics across the CHL.

Later in the show, Glenn Healy, Executive Director of the NHL Alumni Association, joins John to break down the newly announced NHL Collective Bargaining Agreement. Together, they examine how the Alumni Association could quietly emerge as one of the key beneficiaries of the new deal, and what this means for former players moving forward.
