Summary
The Montreal Canadiens are facing elimination as the Carolina Hurricanes hold a commanding series lead in the Eastern Conference Final. We break down what Montreal needs to do to keep their season alive, whether there’s a path back into the series, and if the Hurricanes are simply proving to be too much for the young Canadiens. We also dive into another edition of Fill in the Blank, including which NHL team should be most aggressive in pursuing Mason McTavish if the Anaheim Ducks are willing to listen, and Kelly McCrimmon’s comments about the Bruce Cassidy situation and the leak that shook the hockey world. From there, we continue our offseason preview series with a look at the Columbus Blue Jackets. What should be the organization's top priority this summer? What would a dream offseason look like as Columbus tries to take the next step toward becoming a playoff contender? Steven Ellis joins the show for The Next Wave as we break down his latest Top 100 NHL Draft rankings, discuss some of the biggest risers and fallers, and highlight prospects that hockey fans should be paying attention to ahead of the draft. https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/news/2026-nhl-draft-rankings-may-top-100-mckenna-reid-stenberg-carels-verhoeff-scouting-reports 👍🏼 Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.
