On this episode, Jared, Brent and Tyler discuss some of the craziness that’s happening early in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs but first we get a chance to talk about our favorite team, the Edmonton Oilers. Their GM search took a big hit on Thursday with the announcement that assumed front runner for the job Kelly McCrimmon is taking over as GM in Vegas.

Next up is the Brad Marchand sucker punch from game 3 on Scott Harrington. We try and give our thoughts on all this over blown narrative on social media and around the league. 

Another week and another pair of performances for the NHL Academy Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role. Game 3 of the Stars/Blues series saw Esa Lindell make not one, not two, but THREE awful dives in a row. Not to be out done however, during game 4, Ben Bishop tried to get his name in the mix again by acting as if he lost the use of his legs when he got a bit of a slash in the back from David Perron. 

We discuss what this second round looks like after all the crazy upsets in the first round. With all the underdogs and Cinderella teams it seems like there isn’t much of a draw to watch some of these series, especially Carolina and the Islanders. This has got to be one of the least entertaining series that we have seen in a very long time. 

We finish up by talking about the San Jose/Colorado series and how San Jose looks like they are the better team as long as they get solid goaltending from Martin Jones. 

As usual we get side tracked plenty of times along the way but we’re happy you tuned in and we hope you enjoy the episode.
