Episode Notes

The Vegas Golden Knights surprised everybody by firing head coach Bruce Cassidy with less than 10 games left and replacing him with John Tortorella.

Chris Gawlik of Locked On Vegas Golden Knights joins us to analyze the reasons for the firing, what Tortorella brings to the team and the impact it has on their playoff chances. Plus, is this the last firing we'll see in Vegas?

The Detroit Red Wings have been struggling and are in danger of missing the playoffs yet again this season unless they have a strong finish.

Brian Fisher of Locked On Red Wings joins us to discuss what it will take for the Red Wings to reach the playoffs and the potential consequences for the team and Steve Yzerman if they don't get in.

The Utah Mammoth look to reach the playoffs for the first time since leaving Arizona for Salt Lake City but do they have what it takes to get there?

Tom Callahan of Locked On Mammoth joins us to discuss the team's leadership, what they do well and what it will take to get them into the Stanley Cup Playoffs this season.
