Stanley Cup Final Swing Game & Jeff Marek Joins

About this episode

The episode discusses Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final, offseason rumors, and features an interview with Jeff Marek.

Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final has arrived, and with the series tied, tonight could be the ultimate swing game. We break down the biggest storylines, key matchups, and what each team needs to do to move one win away from the Stanley Cup. We also fire up another edition of Summer Matchmaker, finding the best landing spots for Brendan Gallagher, Elias Pettersson, and Patrik Laine as offseason rumours continue to heat up. Plus, we continue our offseason preview series with a look at the Washington Capitals. What comes next for Alex Ovechkin? Was last season a sign of things to come or just a blip? And what additions do the Caps need to make this summer? Then, Jeff Marek joins the show to discuss how this Stanley Cup Final has changed perceptions around both teams, Carolina's playoff MVP, the latest on Dylan Larkin, Jordan Kyrou's future, and which offseason trade fits stand out the most. 👍🏼 Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.
