The Anaheim Ducks pushed the Edmonton Oilers to the brink of elimination on a controversial overtime goal to end Game 4, taking a commanding 3-1 series lead. The guys wonder about Connor McDavid’s future in Edmonton and discuss the poise shown by the Ducks so far. Plus, The Athletic’s own Arpon Basu joins the show to talk about the razor-close Montreal Canadiens-Tampa Bay Lightning series and the guys recap the action from the rest of the Stanley Cup playoffs, including a Colorado Avalanche sweep of the Los Angeles Kings, Brady Tkachuk’s future in Ottawa after a Carolina Hurricanes sweep of the Senators, and more.
