NHL insider David Pagnotta joins the show with the latest on the Oilers coaching search and the fallout around the league. Plus, the Colorado Avalanche are headed back to the Western Conference Final after Brett Kulak scored the series clincher to eliminate the Minnesota Wild in five games. We discuss the goalie change, Nathan MacKinnon delivering in the clutch, Colorado’s depth stepping up, and whether the Cale Makar injury could become a major factor moving forward. We also play High or Low: 🔹 Higher or lower than a 50% chance Anaheim extends the series? 🔹 Who has the edge in the best-of-three between Montreal and Buffalo? 🔹 Which team is better built to win a high-scoring game? 👍🏼 Powered by bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.
