Show notes
On today’s Locked On NHL, Nick Zararis and Hunter Hodies dive into a chaotic week in hockey. We break down the "bananas" race for the final Western Conference playoff spot, where the Sharks, Kings, and Predators are battling in a "turtle race" toward an 85-point finish. Does Macklin Celebrini have enough "dog in him" to drag San Jose into the postseason?
Next, we examine the fallout in Toronto. After two and a half seasons, Brad Treliving is out—is this the worst GM tenure in recent memory? We look at the roster nightmare facing the next GM, from the core four to a defense aging out of contention. Finally, we celebrate Alex Ovechkin hitting 30 goals for the 20th time. Is he officially the greatest goal scorer of all time?
