About this episode

The episode discusses the outcomes of the recent trade deadline and the implications for various NHL teams as they approach the playoffs.

Following a somewhat lackluster trade deadline, the Leafs failed to make significant moves to restock their cupboards. The Habs stood pat, while the rest of the league continues to chase Colorado. Don't look now, but Buffalo has gone from the bottom of the East to leading the Atlantic division. After beating the Lightning twice this week, they could be considered the class of the Eastern Division. For some teams, it's the mad dash to the Stanley Cup playoffs, while for others, it's time to focus on solidifying draft positioning.
