Episode Notes
The Carolina Hurricanes are the first team to advance to the third round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, dispatching the Philadelphia Flyers in four games and becoming just the fifth team in NHL history to start a postseason with eight straight wins. Today, the guys discuss if the Canes have become the favorite to win the Stanley Cup, Mitch Marner leading the league in playoff scoring, and if Gavin McKenna’s similarities to Marner should be viewed positively or negatively in Toronto for the Maple Leafs. Plus, thoughts on the Montreal Canadiens as legitimate contenders, now up 2-1 over the Buffalo Sabres, and the Anaheim Ducks tying their series with the Vegas Golden Knights after a 4-3 win last night.
