About this episode

The hosts review a weekend of college hockey games featuring higher seeds advancing and discuss NPI bubble teams.

Hosts Jim Connelly (@jimmyconnelly), Derek Schooley (@derekschooley), and Ed Trefzger (@EdTrefzger) review games of the weekend and news of the past week. In our first segment, we look back at a mostly quarterfinal weekend in college hockey that saw a lot of overtime, but with every higher seed advancing. In our second segment, we look at five NPI bubble teams, why they are on the bubble, and how they can get (or stay) inside.
