SportsDay Insiders Kevin Sherrington and Evan Grant are ed by Lia Assimakopoulos and Brad Townsend to discuss [9:00] a busy time in Dallas sports. Besides describing the Wings’ debut, Kevin asks Lia if the Stars have reached a tipping point with their third consecutive conference finals.

[32:15] Brad also gives his take on Cooper Flagg, whom he calls the draft’s best two-way prospect since LeBron James. [46:30] And Evan pinpoints what led to the collapse of the Rangers’ bullpen and their best hopes of reconstructing it.
