Canes Win Another Thriller + a Huge Offseason Ahead for the Devils

About this episode

The episode discusses the Carolina Hurricanes' overtime win, the Colorado Avalanche's struggles, and the New Jersey Devils' offseason decisions.

The Carolina Hurricanes have taken control of the Eastern Conference Final after another dramatic overtime win against the Montreal Canadiens. Andrei Svechnikov delivers the Game 3 winner as Carolina grabs a pivotal 2-1 series lead, but did Montreal miss a massive opportunity to swing the series back in their favour? We also break down the growing pressure surrounding the Colorado Avalanche after falling behind in their series with Vegas. Despite controlling large stretches of play and owning the expected goals battle in two of three games, the Avs are now on the brink. Is this just bad luck, or are major changes coming if this ends early? Plus, we continue our NHL offseason preview series with a look at the New Jersey Devils and the huge decisions facing new GM Sunny Mehta in his first summer running the team. Will New Jersey make bold changes to shake up the core, or stay patient with a group that still believes it can contend? Jeff Marek also joins to discuss whether Vegas’ success after a late coaching change could spark a league-wide trend — and whether Colorado risks overreacting if this season ends in disappointment. #NHL #CarolinaHurricanes #ColoradoAvalanche…
