Summary
NHL playoffs are firing on all cylinders—Vegas Golden Knights are on a hot streak, nearly locked in for the Stanley Cup final, while Montreal Canadiens are a rollercoaster of breakout stars and disappointing slumps.

If the Avalanche want to turn things around, Nelson needs to rediscover his scoring touch fast. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
