Allain Roy joins Scott Burnside and Mike McKenna on the finale of The Suitcase and The Scribe live from the Kelowna airport. Roy is wrapping up his agency camps in the beautiful Okanogan town after starting in New Brunswick earlier in the summer.

Roy first spoke about the market this season and its uniqueness. He then discussed the most recent deal with Jonas Siegenthaler in New Jersey. Siegenthaler isn't the only player Roy works with on the Devils. He spoke about his other client Nico Hischier and how his new deal in New Jersey came about.

After the interview, Mike and Scott dove into what's been happening around the NHL and what hasn't been happening. The New York Islanders have done nothing so far this summer. Mike gives a prediction on what could still happen on Long Island. On the flip side, they spoke about the sneaky good summer the Pittsburgh Penguins have had. Not only did they bring back Kris Letang and Geno Malkin, but they found a way to move Michael Matheson's contract and Jon Marino to bring in Jeff Petry and Ty Smith.

Scott and Mike discussed the situation with Hockey Canada to close the show. Scott has some great work over on DailyFaceoff.com about everything happening.

Mike McKenna and Scott Burnside are back for another episode of The Suitcase and The Scribe. Today's show is centred around free agency, which we are now one week into, and also the situation in Calgary.

After losing Johnny Gaudreau last week to the Columbus Blue Jackets, which caused quite the stir, the Flames are now on the brink of losing Matthew Tkachuk. Tkachuk is a restricted free agent, but all reports indicated that his days might be numbers in the Flames. What does this mean for Calgary? Mike and Scott discuss the situation on today's show.

Additionally, they spoke about why American-born players do not want to stay in Canada. Mike talked about his experiences in the Canadian market, and Scott relayed some information he learned from talking with hockey personnel.

We are now deep into free agency, and most top players are spoken for. However, two names that are still lingering around are Nazem Kadri and John Klingberg do not have homes. Mike and Scott discussed possible landing spots for those two and why they haven't signed anywhere.

Also, on the show, Mike and Scott talked about the San Jose Sharks, the Seattle Kraken, and another current free agent in Nino Niederreiter.

The madness of free agency is less than 24 hours away in the NHL. Mike McKenna and Scott Burnside are here to give you a rundown of who's available and where they could land.

However, before the free agency talk began, Mike told a great story about his experience at a New Jersey Devils camp when Lou Lamoriello was in charge. It's a story you won't want to miss.

After that, the two dove into the free agency chatter, starting at the top of the board with Johnny Gaudreau. Every passing day makes it seem like he won't be signing there. If that's the case, then where will Johnny Hockey land? Could it be Philadelphia? Could New Jersey still be in the mix? Mike and Scott give their takes on today's show.

John Klingberg is another intriguing name on the market, along with David Perron and Nazem Kadri.

Then, it would not that an episode of The Suitcase and The Scribe if Mike and Scott did not talk about goaltenders. Darcy Kuemper and Jack Campbell look like they have found homes in Washington and Edmonton. Ilya Samsonov is a new name joining the market after the Capitals released him. Mike gave his two cents on why that happened.

You can hear all of that and much more on the newest episode of The Suitcase and The Scribe.
