About this episode

Max and Shayna discuss the Hurricanes' comeback in the Stanley Cup Final and the implications of coaching decisions and player trades.

The Carolina Hurricanes rallied from a 2-0 third period deficit to beat the Vegas Golden Knights in overtime and even up the Stanley Cup Final. Max and Shayna discuss the controversial coaches challenge late in the game by John Tortorella, and if Rod Brind'amour will capitalize on this second chance for the Hurricanes, and tweak his lines ahead of game 3? Thomas Drance stops by to provide an update from the NHL scouting combine in Buffalo, he shares his thoughts on the Stanley Cup Final, and Manny Malhotra officially being named head coach of the Vancouver Canucks. Plus, Max and Shayna discuss Dylan Larkin's shocking request, formally asking the Detroit Red Wings to trade him.
