Summary
Dan and Shawn are joined by Tom Gulitti (16:58), NHL.com senior writer covering the Washington Capitals, to discuss Alex Ovechkin’s future after Capitals star announced that a decision on his playing future will be made in the summer. The duo opens the show with discussion about the surprising news out of Long Island, as the Islanders fired Patrick Roy with four games remaining in the season and hired Pete DeBoer in hopes of ending a recent skid and securing a playoff spot. The guys continue with discussion about New Jersey’s decision to part ways with general manager Tom Fitzgerald and what the future may hold for the Devils and wrap the show with thoughts on the playoff chase in the Western Conference.
