About this episode

The episode discusses playoff goaltending with insights from NHL analysts and former players.

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and guest producer Daniele Franceschi check in on the Toronto Maple Leafs' search for a director of hockey operations, as it's reportedly come down to just two names: Scott White and John Chayka. Then, TVA analyst and former NHL goalie Pascal Leclaire (14:44) helps set the stage for the Canadiens' Game 3 matchup against the Lightning in Montreal. He shares his thoughts on what adjustments Montreal must make after two games, goaltending in the series, and Kirby Dach's costly mistake in Game 2. Later, Hockey Hall of Famer and TNT analyst Henrik Lundqvist stops by (35:03) to weigh in on the postseason so far, the Sabres' decision to start Alex Lyon in Game 3 against the Bruins, Linus Ullmark's performance, and more.
