What is the significance of the Carolina Hurricanes' 3-2 series lead?
At the start of today's podcast, we wanted to wish all the best to a big hockey family in the greater Toronto area, the Penizzotto family. Mark, an 18-year Toronto Police Forces veteran, was killed in the line of duty on Thursday morning. He played for the Ontario Junior Hockey League's Oakville Blades from 1999 to 2003 and he was a captain of the team and played professionally overseas in Germany. He and his brothers have had a lot of influence in the youth hockey scene in the area. Jason played university hockey at York, played overseas for about a decade, and Steve played 36 NHL games for the Vancouver Canucks and the Edmonton Oilers, as well as a long career overseas. We wanted to send them our best, in particular, their mother, Linda.
Welcome to 32 Thoughts, the podcast presented by your Canadian Toyota dealers and the 2026 Tacoma. It's time to Toyota. Dom, Elliot and Kyle back with you through five games of the Stanley Cup final. And the Carolina Hurricanes are now one win away from the Stanley Cup. And don't tell me, Elliot. that when, just like a couple of nights previous, when Pavel Dorofeev made it 4-2 in the third period, did you think Carolina is losing this game? Or did you feel differently on Thursday night?
No, I actually feel really good about Carolina in this game. It's kind of weird. There were a lot of things about this one that were... Different than what we've seen so far in the Stanley Cup final. There were no multi-goals comeback this time. For a change, Vegas was the better team in the first period. And for a change, Carolina, which had been outscored 9-1 in the second period in the first four games, won the second. There was a lot different. But I like Carolina's game. As this one went on and on and on from minute one to 60, I thought they got better and better and better. But one thing stayed the same, Kyle, and that constant is the Carolina captain, your new favorite for the consmith trophy, Jordan Stahl.
It didn't matter if Carolina finally had a weaker first period. He still scored, and he could have had several more in this one as he is on a rampage, a scoring rampage unseen in the Stanley Cup final in 53 years in terms of goals in five games in a row and 70 years in terms of goals scored in the first five games of a cup final. He is the one constant, the Golden Knights champion, Cannot stop him.
And it held true again here in game number five. You're right. I mean, the response by that line and the Hurricanes in general after Vegas took an early lead in this game.
What details surround Darnell Nurse's trade request from the Oilers?
And for the first time in this series, you say we did not have a The scoreline be to nothing at some point. We actually saw it at one one for a period of time. And maybe this game was different from all the others, Elliot.
What is the current status of Mike Babcock's investigation by the NHL?
But I do think for a guy like Nick Ehlers, he himself individually had a night that was emblematic of the ups and the downs of the Stanley Cup final. Right. Three assists, some of them things of absolute beauty, but twice got caught with flipping the puck over the glass. Vegas scored on the first time. And anyway, all's well that ends well for Ehlers and the Hurricanes. So he was able to laugh about it in the postgame.
What did Joe Sakic say about the Avalanche's future plans?
But how he described his night was pretty interesting.
You know what, honestly, Kyle, I didn't think he was as bad as he said it was. I understand the best athletes are really critical. You know, Jack Eichel, who had a huge scrum outside his stall after the morning skate, everybody wondering why he hasn't scored said, I'm the most critical guy about myself than anyone else.
What are the implications of Seattle's new front office hires?
I'm my own toughest critic. And I think most guys are like that.
Why did Nikita Kucherov win the Hart Trophy this season?
but I didn't think he was that bad. That was a weird first one, the puck over glass. Like you rarely see people throw the puck over, into the crowd from where he was. That to me was just an adrenaline play.
How does the Thought Line segment engage with listener questions?
The second one, again, I couldn't believe it happened. I loved his line about how I'm afraid to see my dad tonight because his dad's his coach and he knew he was going to get it. And even Brindamore saying, good, I hope he's afraid to see his dad.
