## Resource

The NHL coaching carousel just took a massive turn as the Vegas Golden Knights fire Bruce Cassidy — and John Tortorella steps in behind the bench. What does this mean for Vegas in the playoff race, and how quickly can Tortorella make an impact? We also dive into the Philadelphia Flyers’ playoff push, as they officially force their way back into the Eastern Conference race. Are the Flyers for real, or is this just a late-season surge? Plus, we break down standout performances and key storylines around the league, including Pavel Zacha and Jet Greaves making noise, the massive fight between Kastelic and Mathieu Olivier, and the Ottawa Senators decision to rest Linus Ullmark. To close the show, we look at the St. Louis Blues and shift the conversation to NHL awards races, including Jason Gregors upcoming article on the Norris Trophy. 👍🏼 Powered by @bet365 | Hockey fans - Check out bet-three-six-five’s 3-Goal Early Payout.
