## Resource

Just one seat remains at the Conference Finals table as the Vegas Golden Nights finished off the Anaheim Ducks to book a date with the Presidents' Trophy-winning Colorado Avalanche. In Buffalo, the Montreal Canadiens got off to a wobbly start but then kicked it into gear to take a 3-2 series lead back home with a chance to clinch Saturday night. Vic and Neil re-cap both games and also discuss the new leadership team in Vancouver with two legends being tapped to lead the Canucks from the depths of the NHL.
